Participate in an International Experience During Your Global Operations Course

Capella's international experience is an optional, but invaluable, part of your curriculum and is strongly encouraged to help you gain a better understanding of global operations and supply chain management from an international perspective. Last year's destination was Santiago, Chile.

During this one-week trip, you will focus on global operations and explore relevant aspects of another culture. You will also have the opportunity to:

• Engage in dialogue with business and government leaders in another country
• Interact with senior level executives at some of the world's leading companies
• Build deeper relationships with peers and network with leaders from multiple industries
• Gain first-hand experience in the many ways culture impacts the challenges and complexities of global business operations

The international experience is offered twice per year, and you can participate during Global Operations course DB8030, designed to be taken in your fifth quarter. Trips vary in price depending on the number of attendees, and participants are responsible for the cost of their travel, accommodations, food and other associated expenses.

Call 1.888.CAPELLA (888.227.3552) to speak with a Capella Counselor to learn more about our international experience.

"This international program has been phenomenal! I can't imagine not being here. I travel internationally quite a bit, but being able to sit next to top-level executives of global companies to discuss their operations, supply chain and business strategies is incredible. It validates everything we are learning in our courserooms and gives us an opportunity and experience that should not be missed."
– Gladys Ekisola, May 2011
