Study Abroad
A
global education is all about perspective. When you are able to view your
familiar world through another's lens, you will have gained the insight and
understanding that is the essence of a global education.
The Mason
School of Business is fully committed to the promotion of international
education. We will work with every student to incorporate an international
experience in your Individual Program of Study (IPS). We
even offer a specialized degree that integrates your study abroad experience
with formal coursework in business and cultural studies called International Emphasis.
A study abroad experience gives
you a valuable perspective, and is a vital contribution to your business
education. By studying at a foreign institution, you take a moment to
look at the world from a unique point of view. The way businesses
interact in England or Australia or China is
distinct from the way businesses interact in the United
States - and understanding those
differences may just make all the difference in the world.
The Mason School of Business encourages all students to study abroad and not necessarily just in Business. The flexibility of your IPS allows you to study abroad in any discipline and still be on track to graduate with a business degree on time. Students have traveled to Italy to study Art History, India to study Sociology, Ireland to study Philosophy, China to study Martial Arts, and a variety of other places studying non-business disciplines. For a list of all programs available visit the Global Education Office (GEO) website.
