Description: The overall purpose of this seminar is to provide participants an opportunity to be exposed to the international business enviornment and practices outside the United States. In addition, this seminar provides participants an opportunity to develop insight into the cultural, social, and political environments of each country to be visited. Participation in an International Business Seminar is a unique way for individuals who are interested in pursuing a career in international business or a related field to acquire a firsthand view of international business practices and experience the excitement of traveling outside the United States.

Highlights: The seminar has eight formal visits, which will average about three hours each day. The type of presentation will vary from company to company; however, almost all presentations will include input by management personnel. Thhe sessions may include lectures, panel discussions, plant tours, or some combination of all these elements. Past experience has shown that students learn a great deal from the question/answer session that is a part of each visit; thus, students' questions are highly encouraged. In addition, there are two meetings with faculty that average two hours each, and organized trous as well as faculty-directed instruction during coach travel times between destinations.

Seminars are normally held in the mornings and/or afternoons. In some instances, a company will have a session that lasts the entire day; however, as mentioned above, most will run from two to four hours. Some companies provide a lunch, usually with management personnel in attendance. Seminars will usually be held during weekdays (Monday through Friday); however, there normally will be some free time during these days to allow participants access to shopping facilities, banks, and other facilities of interest that are not normally open on Saturdays and Sundays. Weekends, on the whole, are free; however, some weekend time may be reserved for travel to new destinations.
