China has clearly become one of the most important economic powers in the world, making a business study abroad program in China very timely.
Professor Richard Spreng will lead a study abroad program in China for Summer 2012. The program will be three weeks in China, with on-campus sessions in East Lansing during Spring semester, and we will visit four Chinese cities: Shanghai, Guilin/Yangshuo, Xian, and Beijing. Three of these cities are very important in the international and domestic business life of China, while in Guilin/Yangshuo students will be exposed to a different ethnic group and a more rural environment.
Activities will include visits to businesses, guest lectures by local faculty, community service (practice English with Chinese high school students), and historical and cultural excursions.
