International Seminar, China

With its entry into the WTO, China represents the single largest business opportunity in the world. Yet entry into the Chinese market is no easy task. Many Americans mistakenly assume that the lessons of Japan or Korea should be good guides to doing business in China. However, China's cultural, political, economic, and business environments are dramatically different from those of its Asian neighbors.

During this International Seminar, students visit three distinct destinations in China and examine the business environment, culture and history of the country. They participate in lectures and discussions with local experts, visit Chinese and joint venture enterprises, and tour cultural sites. They thus gain a fundamental understanding of the Chinese business environment to prepare them for future business interactions.
