Marketing students should jump on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity take your global marketing elective while studying abroad! You’ll have the chance to take what you’ve learned in class and see it applied as you meet with executives from both multi-national and English companies. You'll be able to soak up the cultural sites such as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, the London Eye and more!
Previous business visits include the US Embassy, BDO, Capital One, EuroMonitor, Wendy's, and the Historic Royal Palaces marketing team (subject to change).

Studying and traveling through London helped me get a better grasp on the wider world. Go into this experience expecting to be challenged, but have confidence in yourself to become a critical thinker in a new environment.
