Education abroad experiences provide invaluable opportunities for students to learn in different educational environments and to gain firsthand exposure to other countries, cultures, societies and business practices.
The Office of International Business Studies (OIBS) assists Marquette Business students in finding education abroad programs and opportunities that fit their unique situations and goals. Where, when and for how long you study abroad will depend on your area of education, academic goals and preferences.
Marquette Business students can choose from fall or spring academic terms, full academic year programs, summer programs, and fall, winter and spring break programs. Break programs are offered through the college, while semester and academic year programs are offered through the Office of International Education.
