Study Abroad

Study abroad provides firsthand experience in a foreign setting, strengthening the connection between classroom concepts and real-world business and culture. Understanding the dynamics of international business and the global economy is at the heart of the Haslam curriculum. All students are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity during their course of study, but it is required of those pursuing a collateral or concentration in international business.

While there are many ways to study abroad and earn credit, a number of Haslam faculty offer mini-term and summer study abroad business programs in various locations including England, Ireland, Italy, Spain and Australia. These faculty-led programs are unique in that they take full advantage of HCB faculty expertise while offering courses that are valuable – and in some cases, required – to business students.
