Global Studies and Languages

Transcript

Okay. Now let’s throw an O over to Riley and Bretten. They are twin brothers in their junior year studying business administration with concentrations in operational business analytics and entrepreneurship. These global scholars just returned from a summer in Italy and are ready to share their international adventures with us all.

– Thanks for the introduction, Alex.

– we were big fans of UO growing up. So when we started our search for potential universities, we knew UO was the right choice.

– We wanted to study business and be a part of the Robert D Clark’s honors college. We attended an information session through the university’s global education Oregon, and we’re excited to study abroad. We’ve always had the desire to travel and learn more about other cultures.

– [Riley] After talking to our academic advisors and the global education Oregon staff, we decided to study wine marketing in Santa Italy for our summer term. While there, we studied sustainable marketing, intercultural communication and wine management.

– [Bretten] Our in-class projects replicated a hands-on practical business experience. We traveled throughout Italy and learned the culture, the history and the cuisine of many Italian regions.

– This program is just one of hundreds offered at University of Oregon. Whether you’re looking for an internship, a language program, or to study within your major, global education, Oregon can help you reach your goals and organize a plan.

– [Bretten] And with the launch of UOs new school of global studies and languages in the college of arts and sciences, the UO is opening up even more doors to be more globally minded, learn new languages and find solutions to some of the world’s greatest challenges.

– We knew our time at Oregon was going to be amazing, but that diversity and opportunities we were offered far exceed our expectations. Aside from international travel, we’re also part of the run club and the Warsaw business club.

– We’ve built incredible memories in the classroom, studying abroad and cheering on our ducks at sporting events. There is no better place than Oregon and as always, Go ducks.

– Okay. So who wouldn’t want to study wine marketing in the Tuscany region of Italy? Now that’s an international class project that I could get behind. And that’s only one of many opportunities for these ducks to take flight around the world. Thanks you two.
