EMBRACING A GLOBAL MARKET
An integral part of Robinson's EMBA program is the International Study Tour,
a 14-day intensive exposition into the management and business practices of companies around the world.
Prior to travel, the class attends an in-depth protocol and trip preparation workshop. Additionally, study teams research and prepare a paper on a company that will be visited on the tour. Company executives receive a copy of the analysis, which is discussed with the teams during the visit.
Past meetings with companies have included INVESCO, UPS, Coca-Cola, Hewlett-Packard, as well as government officials who provided students with a first-hand look at the social fabric, technology, infrastructure, politics and culture of the region. Past trips have included Japan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and Argentina.
