"The
Global Business Perspectives trip to Washington DC is one of the most memorable
experiences of my MBA. From Congressmen to think-tanks to non-profit
organizations, we experienced the web of influence that turn ideas into
policy. Whether it is tax reform, financial regulation, corporate
governance, or technological innovation (yes, even technology), DC is at the
center stage. Policy is born in DC, and impacts every aspect of
business. An understanding of business is not complete without a trip to
DC - I absolutely recommend this trip!"
“Of all the places to visit in the world,
Washington DC is the political epicenter. Decisions made there alter the
course of the economy, impacting every business and individual on the
planet. Professor Furlong opened doors for our SCU class, providing
access into Senate offices, Federal Reserve, lobbyists, think tanks, political
influencers, NGOs and even an embassy. Each visited provided powerful
insights into the workings of US government. The knowledge we gained and
the contacts we made in one week will serve us well as we advance our
businesses and our careers.”
“The caliber of the individuals that briefed us and
the insider’s perspective on the key issues facing the nation were
unparalleled. It is a historic time to visit DC and a every student should take
advantage of this amazing program!”
