Program Reviews:
Winter Break 2025 Participant
I learned to prioritize your health and well-being while on the trip. There can be very long days and lots of walking, so making sure you feel your best will help you get the most out of the trip.
Winter Break 2025 Participant
My favorite part of the program was the blend of academic and cultural exploration. Visiting renowned companies allowed me to gain insights into Spain's business environment, while trips to landmarks like Park Güell and the Royal Palace of Madrid helped me appreciate the country’s rich history and architectural beauty.

The most rewarding elements of the program were the opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world settings during company visits and the chance to build cross-cultural connections. Experiencing Spain’s diverse regions firsthand helped me grow academically and personally, fostering adaptability and global awareness.
