Study Trip to the United States

Prof. Tawfik Jelassi
Spring -- 1 credit
 
The U.S. Study Trip is designed to introduce participants to leading Technology, Innovation, & and Entrepreneurship institutions on the East Coast of the U.S. Participants will also examine investment, banking, US regional business development, and the realization of the so-called “American Dream”, through visits to a mix of small to large businesses, factories, banks, and governmental business development bodies.   

In Boston, participants will notably attend lectures on entrepreneurial marketing and visit a technology incubator and high-tech start-ups. In New York, the focus will be on investment and international banking and possibly on media companies.

As an indicator of the price for this study trip, last year´s trip to New York and Boston cost roughly 1400 euros per participant, including accommodation, meals, round-trip flight, and local transportation.   

Space is limited. Participation is subject to the positive review of your 1-page statement of interest. Spouses and friends may not join the study trip.
