From November 13 – 17, the Department was host to a group of master’s students from the Graduate School of Management (IAE) in Aix-en-Provence, France. The group was on campus as part of a rigorous academic study tour, the first of its kind organized between the two universities. Sponsored by the Center for Interdisciplinary French Studies and IAE, the 5-day tour took the group (a combination of International Business as well as Management Control and Reporting students) around Madison and Milwaukee and introduced students to the Wisconsin economy, economic development, entrepreneurship and innovation, cross-cultural issues in management, and the UW’s economic and entrepreneurial impact within and beyond the state.
