COBA students gain practical global experience for a global marketplace. The University is part of a consortium that offers study abroad opportunities at 35 sites in 24 countries, including Turin, Italy; Brighton, England; Gold Coast, Australia; and Copenhagen, Denmark. Students can stay for a semester, the summer, or a year.
All College of Business Administration students, ALL MAJORS, are strongly encouraged to study abroad during their Bachelor degree program. Study abroad programs can assist students in the development of academic/intellectual, personal, professional, and cross-cultural skills.
Many business students participate in one of the University Studies Abroad Consortium (USAC) programs. The University of Toledo is a member of USAC which offers opportunities at 37 sites in 25 countries including: Turin, Italy; Brighton, England; Bilbao/Getxo, Spain; Gold Coast, Australia; and Chengdu, China. Summer, semester, and year-long programs are available. Students typically enroll in a combination of business courses (taught in English), non-business courses (taught in English), and foreign language courses (at the student's option).
In addition to the USAC programs, there are study abroad programs led by College of Business faculty. These trips are often 2-3 weeks in length. Examples of Business faculty trips include Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and Asia. Opportunities vary from year to year.
Other options for students interested in studying abroad are trips sponsored by UT's Foreign Language Department. These programs are especially helpful for students seeking intensive language programs.
For more information on any of the programs outlined above, make an appointment to meet with Mrs. Deborah Roberts, College of Business Student Services Center, ST 1016, 419-530-2087.
