Global Seminars & Global Intensives
Global Seminars
Global Seminars are summer programs in which a small class of CU Boulder students take coursework taught by a CU Boulder faculty member abroad. The course(s) have a specific theme related to the Faculty Director’s area of expertise, so you will have the opportunity to learn from an expert in a real-world context.
Study entrepreneurship & innovation and the critical role each play in the economic development of a nation
Study with business executives, economists and government officials, all while interning in the financial capital of the world.
Experience real world innovation in a country that is a world leader in the export of goods and services.
Study management while getting an inside look at Spanish and international companies
Build on your business minor by spending time in the south of France and Morocco learning about business in Europe and Africa
Global Intensives
Global Intensives are semester-long courses taught on campus at CU Boulder, featuring an immersive international component. A Leeds faculty member leads a small class of Leeds students, who then travel together in May to explore the course themes in a local, real-world context.
Build your business skills during the spring semester on campus, then put them into practice on a 9-day trip to Tokyo and Kyoto—learning from start-ups, global companies, and Japan’s vibrant culture.
Spend the spring semester mastering design thinking, lean startup tools, and global market testing on campus, then bring those skills to life during a two-week experiential trip to Japan.
