The overall idea of this graduate-level study abroad is to get some real-world international communication experience. As such, we will work with at least a couple of agencies/institutes/businesses that focus on tourism and marketing in Europe to an international audience. 

Ultimately, students who take advantage of this opportunity will get international communication experience. And a great side benefit is getting to visit France, Belgium and the Netherlands with some built-in fun side activities. 

Students would be able to take up to two classes and earn up to 6 hours of graduate credit by participating. Students don’t have to possess a PR background to take advantage of the opportunity.

This study abroad course is designed to provide real-world international communication experience. Students will work as consultants with international clients, agencies and businesses to provide strategic communication insights.
