Faculty Led Trip
Each school year, a qualified professor (or professors) teaches a course on business
in a specific country. At the end of the course, the class visits the country to experience
firsthand the content they learned all semester. If you want to study abroad but are
unsure about long term commitment, this is the perfect opportunity for you. You can
travel with a group and decide if studying abroad is of real interest to you! There
is an additional cost to take these classes to help fund the trip. Past trips include
visits to London, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Brazil. If you are interested in enrolling
in this international study experience or have further questions, please contact Dr. Jaime Williams for more information.
FH Aachen
The International Business 4-Year Program enables students to overcome international
borders, language barriers, and cultural differences within all business contexts.
After their sophomore year at TN Tech, students complete their 3rd year in Aachen,
Germany. FH Aachen takes a distinct international approach, allowing students to graduate
with a prestigious dual degree, i.e. a degree from Tennessee Tech University and also
from the University of Applied Sciences in Aachen. This opportunity optimally prepares
degree holders to earn jobs in internationally operating companies.
