The Global Business Practicum was a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience work life, especially in a different country. As someone who had no previous work experience, this was my first time being exposed to what professional life felt like, and the types of expectations that might be placed on me. I’m so glad that I was able to be a part of this course.
