All business is global. A University of Miami Study Abroad experience gives you an excellent means to enrich your business education by learning about the many varied cultural values, political and legal systems, and economic and historical conditions that shape a country’s economy and financial transactions. Studying abroad signifies an exciting, hands-on way to discover new approaches to the study of business while enhancing your professional and personal skills. 

You may choose from short-term, faculty-led programs in the summer or semester-long and full-year enrollment programs at international exchange universities. Many opportunities exist to fulfill general education classes and electives, and some that allow you to complete business core and major course requirements. 

The key to taking flight is planning ahead. Talk to your academic advisor early about your desire to study abroad to co-create your degree planner.
