Nick traveled to Panama to learn about the country’s unique position in the business world and the global supply chain.
"My study abroad to Panama is an experience that I will never forget. I learnedabout business, discovered a new culture, and made connections. In short, this experience broadened my view of the world and hopefully will allow me to participate in the world economy once I graduate."
"The structure of the course was to visit places and companies that each have a story to tell in how and why they to decided to do business in Panama.
Throughout the process I met business leaders, the former Minister of Economy for Panama, and a number of friends that I will have for a long time. All of these people taught me something about business and gave me invaluable lessons.
My view on international business changed as I now understand that even the smallest of countries can drastically affect the landscape of the world."
