College of Business Study Abroad Trip to Lithuania - The
College of Business will typically select four students to accompany
faculty members on a two week study of international
business strategy and cultural tour of Lithuania. Students selected for
the trip will participate in a business strategy course taught by the
COB faculty along with Lithuanian students at Vilnius University in the
country's capitol. The students on the trip will also have the opportunity
to visit business organizations in the country and engage in a variety
of cultural experiences. The trip will also include the opportunity for
3 hours of MSU credits.
The students selected
typically receive COB scholarship grants around $1000 to partially cover
the costs of the trip. Additional costs of approximately $800 to $1000
plus course credit tuition will be the responsibility of participating
students. The selected students will also have the option to extend their
stay in Europe at their own expense. To be considered students should
be admitted or be fully eligible for admission to the College of Business. Students interested in this unique and exciting trip to a relatively "undiscovered"
part of Eastern Europe should contact Dave Foster (Reid 344, 994-6188
or dfoster@montana.edu) for application procedures.
