During their study of international marketing and management, students will travel to Guanajuato, Mexico, to meet and network with Mexican business executives and various companies to discuss current business decision-making and leadership skills.
In preparing for this experience, students will first learn through an online spring semester course comprising online work on modules that will range from the general culture of Mexico to the inner-workings of NAFTA.
