Possible Study Abroad Partnerships in Europe

The College of Business is exploring possiblities for two exciting new study abroad options for business students in Europe. IBC Director Gary Ragatz, Mick Vande Berg of MSU’s Office of Study Abroad, and Professor Ed Ingraham of the MSU Honors College recently visited universities in Madrid and Rome to discuss possible collaborations that would offer new semester- or year-long study abroad options for MSU Business and Honors College students. In addition to business courses, these programs would provide opportunities for foreign language and cultural studies.
