The University of Oklahoma Price College of Business would like to welcome you to two new study abroad programs for the summer of 2008. You could spend one month, at the beginning of the summer, in Vichy, France or Alcalá de Henares, Spain. While there you can earn 6 credit hours in business and experience the culture and excitement of a foreign country.

Blaise Pascal University in Vichy, France, is located 4 hours from Paris, and the University of Alcalá de Henares in Alcalá de Henares, Spain, is only 30 minutes outside of Madrid. What sets Price College’s study abroad program apart from others is that the classes at each of these universities will be taught entirely in English. Also, courses will only run from Monday through Thursday to allow for travel and activities outside the classroom. Besides coursework, students will have the opportunity to tour local companies, take overnight trips to other cities and areas of the country, visit museums and other attractions, and be introduced to local foods and cultural traditions. In doing so, you will learn about different cultural and economic environments, interact with foreign students and faculty, and observe, first hand, global business operations with OU faculty guiding the way. By participating in the Summer Study Abroad Program, you will enroll in the Price College summer courses and receive letter grades just as you would here in Norman. In other words, unlike some study abroad programs, you will not have to be concerned about transferring credits and worry whether your classes count towards your business degree.

Any student enrolled in The Price College of Business who is a sophomore, junior, or senior in good academic standing can apply. (If you are not sure whether you qualify please contact the Undergraduate Advising Office). Although the program is opened to all Price College students, due to its length, it does not satisfy the study abroad requirement for international business majors.
