In a rapidly globalizing world, the economics curriculum at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø fosters students’ appreciation of differences in culture, language, currency, and more through opportunities to study off campus and abroad.
Semester Study Groups
All ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø study groups are led by a ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø faculty member. The study groups are specially designed to maximize students’ experiences when studying abroad, while also maintaining high academic standards. All credits earned while studying with a ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø off-campus study group earn ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø course credit.
