Study Abroad Programs in Business Schools: Issues and Recommendations by Leading Educators
January 1, 2002  - Michigan State University

Study abroad is an effective way to accomplish internationalization of faculty and students; however, there are many challenges relating to study abroad that need to be resolved. The underlying rationale for study abroad is evolving, as are the anticipated outcomes for students studying abroad. Moreover, there is no single source of information about study abroad and best practices relating to study abroad. As a response to these challenges, more than sixty faculty and administrators from business and other disciplines gathered in East Lansing to share their perspectives and experiences and brainstorm about solutions to issues surrounding study abroad.
