Jumpstart Your Business
Corina, University of Hawaii at Manoa, took Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Europe.

Corina also outlined her own start-up idea with her classmates for the course’s group project.
Receive Constructive Feedback from Professionals
Anuradha, Rhode island School of Design, was a part of the Interior Architecture Studio course. At the end of the summer, she presented and received feedback on her final project from Danish urban planning and architecture professionals.
Immerse Yourself in Hands-on Learning Experiences
Darcy, Franklin & Marshall College, while in the Human Health and Disease: A Clinical Approach course, visited local hospitals to meet with Danish doctors and medical researchers.

Get Inspired to Make Positive Change
Katie, Washington University in St. Louis, traveled to Northern Germany on Study Tour with Renewable Energy Systems to learn about Germany’s energy transition from fossil fuels to wind power.
