Summer Abroad Doing Business in Hong Kong & China
|
Classes: May 27 - June 14, 2013 (4 units)
Internships: June 17 ~ July 26, 2013 (3-4 units)
Hong Kong has remained at the cutting edge of business and commerce as it has transitioned from British to Chinese governance. Hong Kong’s legal, business, social and cultural environment integrates the unique culture of China with a very Western approach. Ideal for students who want to study business and foreign trade in Hong Kong and China while engaging in a comparative study of Chinese, British, U.S. and Australian legal systems.
Please note that the internships in Hong Kong are now full. However, we still have spaces available for internships in Shanghai and Beijing.
