Course Description

OFFP-SWSB SWSB London Program Planning The goal of this course is to prepare study abroad students for a semester's study in the Sigmund Weis School of Business London Program. Students begin work toward achieving the cross-cultural learning goals; examples include examining definitions and aspects of culture and learning to recognize ethnocentrism. They will be introduced to observational and reflective techniques to be used on site and will begin an investigation of the history and culture of their destination. Many differences come into play: finances, physical health and safety, cultural expectations, and world affairs differ in relevance to the SU student studying on campus versus studying in London. This course will respond to the question of how to research, plan and prepare for a study abroad experience, as well as how to prepare to return home. This course also includes some mandatory workshops provided by the GO Program office. Prerequisite: Approval by the GO Program office 1 SH
