Comparative Country Analysis: How Do Businesses Elsewhere Succeed?

Comparative Country Analysis (No International Travel)

Students who would like to learn intensively about different countries and how businesses succeed there, but are not able to participate in the international travel portion of the courses can now still do so with the Comparative Country Analysis course. Students select two study abroad courses that they would be interested in and participate five of the pre-trip classes of those courses (all three of the first course and the second and third of the second course). By comparing the two regions they selected, students learn how countries succeed - or fail - in their endeavors and what the factors are that contribute to their failure or success. In this class, students write a research paper and give an in class presentation to demonstrate substantial understanding of the differences of a specific economic or business aspect that concerns both regions.

Instruction: follows the calendar of the two selected study abroad courses
Please contact the faculty advisors of both study abroad courses that you selected.

This course can substitute for: BUSB 342;  BUAD 655W; INFT 630; MAM course by approval of graduate program director.
