Business Study in Cologne, Germany Expanded to Undergraduate Programs

On July 2, we told you about a great opportunity for MBA students to visit Cologne, Germany as part of a new international experience.  That group leaves in less than two weeks with 12 excited MBA students. 

 

Now undergraduate students will have the opportunity to study for a semester in Cologne through a partnership between the Hamline School of Business (HSB) and the Cologne School of Business (CSB).  Students will leave for Germany on January 3, 2010 and return in June 2010.  Students will study the German language and culture while taking business courses taught by HSB and CSB faculty.  Check out the full information on the program flyer and view photos of beautiful Cologne, Germany on the study abroad web site.
