International Field Study Programs
Northeastern’s MBA international summer programs are designed to give students knowledge in and new perspectives regarding international business. They aim to help students develop critical skills necessary to compete and succeed in the global market. All courses involve a multinational faculty and are taught in English. Each year students can apply to their choice of one of four destinations offered. Each program offers a unique opportunity to explore business outside the traditional classroom boundaries. 2013 program offerings included China, Russia, South America (Peru & Chile), and the Aegean Region (Turkey & Greece). In the past students have also gone to Brazil, Argentina, and India. The 2013 China IFS program visits through Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Beijing.

Famous quotes containing the words field, study and/or programs:
“And there, a field rat, startled, squealing bleeds,
His belly close to ground. I see the blade,
Blood-stained, continue cutting weeds and shade.”
—Jean Toomer (18941967)
“In a famous Middletown study of Muncie, Indiana, in 1924, mothers were asked to rank the qualities they most desire in their children. At the top of the list were conformity and strict obedience. More than fifty years later, when the Middletown survey was replicated, mothers placed autonomy and independence first. The healthiest parenting probably promotes a balance of these qualities in children.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
“Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (18871970)
