Program Design - International Trips


The EMBA international trip is built into the curriculum as part of a class on International Business.  It is a required course.  We travel to different locations each year – though for the past few cycles have traveled to Asia.  We typically leave on a Thursday and return 11 days later on a Monday.  The trip is a combination of lectures, company visits and cultural tours.   The airfare (from Atlanta), lodging and some meals are covered as a part of your tuition.

Attached is a sample itinerary from a recent trip.
