Project Overview:

In the Spring semester of 2021 I set up and delivered a COIL project in collaboration with Laurea University in Helsinki, Saclay University in Paris and the International University of Catalunya in Barcelona.

In this project Business and Education students from the four different universities worked together in small groups to discuss international and cross-cultural business issues.   They collaborated with each other to solve business problems and to study examples of business writing.

The students worked together very well in their discussion groups and I really enjoyed the collaboration with academic colleagues in different countries.   The CU COIL team were also very helpful and supportive throughout the planning and the delivery of the project.

We are looking forward to running this project again in the spring of 2022!
