  • Graduate Study Tour

    The Study Tour combines learning with travelling. Students will attend pre-travel lectures prior to departing to our tour destinations. In the host countries, students will gain first hand experience and an understanding of a unique business culture directly from industry experts. Students will visit local companies and participate in some cultural and sightseeing activities. 

     

 

  • Global Immersive Option

    The Global Immersive Option (GIO) is an international alternate Strategy Field Study (601) project, where teams of students work directly with an international company on a comprehensive strategic assessment or market entry strategy. Students participate in a guided trip to the destination country to meet the client company, conduct research and understand the regional context.

    “This course is a perfect amalgamation of learning and real-world application; you’re not only given a chance to develop your business acumen but also to see how these skills can have a direct positive impact on communities. The hands-on experience, cultural immersion, and the opportunity to work across diverse teams is incredibly enriching.”

The Open Arms Committee (OAC) is a student-run organization at Schulich with the purpose of facilitating the transition of both undergraduate and graduate exchange students to life at Schulich.

Throughout the year, the OAC organizes events for exchange students and keeps them informed of what is going on socially at the School and around the city. In addition to these efforts, each exchange student is partnered with a Schulich student “buddy” who is available to answer any questions or concerns throughout their stay.
