Summer Program in Florence

I will be leading another group to Florence for six weeks in May and June. The program will provide six credits -- three in business (OPIM 293) and three elective credits (probably in art history or italian culture). You can find more details on the UConn Study abroad website (the link is along the right side of this blog), or by contacting me.

I think the program will also include students from Penn State.

Summer Program at Georgetown

We had a student from UConn attend this last year (contact me if you'd like to talk to them) and he thought it was excellent. Here's the announcement, and they also have scholarship money available.
