Comparative Strategic Management Program
Trinity College Oxford, England
General Information
July 2 - Aug 12, 2009
By the year two thousand, almost all business has become global. Internationally qualified managers are increasingly in demand. Georgetown University offers a unique summer program to increase the international management skills of selected undergraduate students.
In Oxford, England, for the thirty-third consecutive year, the Robert Emmett McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University and the School for Summer and Continuing Education will conduct a six-week session in comparative strategic management. Among the outstanding features of the program are:
- Tutors are British faculty members
- Instruction follows traditional Oxford methods of lectures, seminars, and tutorials
- All students live a few yards from the Bodleian Library and Radcliffe Camera in single rooms in the historic setting of Trinity College
- All students undertake several business visits to British firms
The program is designed for mature undergraduate students in business administration who have completed at least 60 credits and who are motivated to enrich their academic and personal lives with the experience of living and learning in a foreign setting.
As students learn to understand business from other than an American perspective, they are rewarded by acquiring an increased awareness of intercultural differences.
Georgetown University's Summer Program in Comparative Strategic Management at Oxford University compares business functions in Great Britain, Western Europe, and the United States. Comparative Strategic Management fulfills the Strategic Management (MGMT 283) core requirements of all Georgetown business majors. International Finance counts as one of the upper-level International Business Core courses for the International Business concentration and satisfies one of the elective requirements of Finance majors (FINC 250). Both courses earn Georgetown University credit, not transfer credits.
