Valuing Study Abroad Opportunities


Africa Summit.jpg While surfing the internet last week, I came across information about the 2007 U.S.-Africa Business Summit themed “Africa: Entering the Door to Opportunities” scheduled for Nov. 14-16, 2007 in Cape Town, South Africa. It seemed rather apropos given that the Massey School just sent our latest group of graduate students to South Africa to learn about exciting new business opportunities in the region.

A colleague and I have been researching the value proposition of study abroad experiences for graduate students. Our alums view these trips positively.
