Under the guidance of the course instructor, students gather information about potential study trip destinations, research relevant data and facts about the destination country, and organize the program. The week in an international environment is characterized by company visits, attendance at lectures at partner universities, as well as presentations and events in the area of social skills. The aim is to ensure that students develop an understanding of the principal cultural trends of the respective country. Discussions with professionals and executives, visits to foreign trade centers, and meetings with business and social associations complement the international and personal development experiences of the study trip.
