Upcoming Info Sessions: Do you know how business is really conducted in Asia?

Do you know how business is really conducted in Asia?
Have you ever dreamed of climbing the Great Wall of China? How about viewing Hong Kong’s skyline from Victoria’s Peak?

We are in the process of planning the Global Management Experience, a 4-credit course that involves analytical work during the first half of the spring semester on campus, and culminates with a trip to Beijing and Hong Kong during Spring Break. Pre-travel course work includes exploration of economic, governmental and social factors that affect the conduct of business, and ethics, in a variety of industries and contexts. The trip involves visiting business executives, government leaders and entrepreneurs, observing first-hand the application of management principles and strategies in the global arena. Students interested in learning more about the course are invited to attend one of three Information Sessions to be held on:

  • December 3, 5:00 pm – 6:00pm (Room 220) 
  • December 9, 9:00 am – 10:00 am (Room 302) 
  • December 10, 11:00 am – 12:00 Noon (room 302)
At this meeting, you will have the opportunity to learn details about the course requirements and the field study portion.
For people who are interested, more information follows below and please SEE FULL FLYER BELOW.
