As with most other VSB majors, it is important to begin thinking and planning the study abroad process early. Early planning will allow students to have a firm understanding of what can be taken abroad and needs to completed on campus.
It should be noted that the first-year VSB students cannot study abroad (with the exception of the Global Citizens Program), and students must meet prerequisite requirements for their overseas institution.
Tell your academic advisor that you are interested in study abroad at each registration appointment. Together, identify the best terms to go abroad, based on the courses in your four-year-plan.
Some things to consider for Management majors:
- You can take up to two MKT courses abroad.
MKT courses often cross list with other VSB majors and minors – like International Business
- If you are interested in pursuing a second major or minor, you should consult with your Clay Center advisor to understand the implications.
- IB Co-Majors: a minimum of 6 credits of programming abroad must be completed (semester, summer or combination of two May-term programs) to fulfill requirements for the IB Co-major.
Search the OEA Course Approval History database to select from more than 3,000 study abroad courses that have already been pre-approved for liberal education requirements and a growing list of technical courses.
The Course Approval History database is not all-inclusive and students can work with an OEA advisor to submit additional courses for review.
Don't forget - VSB has a list of policies and limitations specifically focused on study abroad. Make sure you're aware of these as you plan your overseas experience.
