What Our Students Are Saying…

“Before I studied in England, I did not know how traveling abroad would change my life. Now, almost a year later, I see myself as a totally different person. Studying in England allowed me to live a culture, not just visit. From a global standpoint, I have gained a better understanding of the business environment and the cultural diversity that exists among different countries.”

- William Pinski, USA

“Traveling to China has changed many of my ideas about international business and the issues affecting the situation. Many things are different and must be considered before attempting to open a business overseas. Not only do you have to study the different business aspects, but you also have to study the different cultures and traditions.”

- Amanda Farmer, USA

“My week in Juárez was hard work and challenging, but it taught me to value my privileged life and to live in every moment. I admire the people I encountered for their strength. I will never forget the faces of the two little girls and their mother, Maria, whose house we volunteered to build. They may not have much in terms of material things, but they have faith and hope. It was an adventure I will always carry with me.”

- April Logan, USA

“There is no book that offers you as much exposure to the real world as participating in an international study abroad…as soon as you are back in the States you realize the good investment you have made.”

- Gaston Reinoso, Argentina

“Studying abroad is a wonderful experience. SIUE offers to its exchange students a high level of education, composed of innovation and cultural diversities that help students reach excellence.”

- Damien Dumesnil, France

“Studying abroad allows students to get to know other cultures by living them. The experience has literally meant the world to me.”

- Sabine van Ditzhuijzen, The Netherlands

“The trip to France last year was the most memorable event of my graduate or even undergraduate education. The opportunity to visit businesses and to see first hand the operations of a foreign company is something I never would have been able to experience otherwise…This experience…has helped me maintain a broad perspective regarding alternative approaches and diversity.”

- Margaret Luna, USA

“I think studying abroad is a unique opportunity to discover a foreign country, to find out everything about the people in that country, but most of all to explore yourself. Studying abroad always pays off!”

- Frans van Rijnswou, The Netherlands
