Double business and financial economics major Tyler Hervas '11 studied in Copenhagen, Denmark during the summer of 2009. Studying through the Danish Institute of Study Abroad, the program took tours of local Danish banks museums, and even pastry shops. Hervas remembers, "Studying abroad was such an interesting and fun change from the Wittenberg bubble. I loved seeing first hand how companies in a different part of the world were dealing with and planning for the financial crisis in 2009. However, in general the best part is being part of a foreign culture and living how other people around the world live." |
