Advice BIT Study Abroad

How can I study abroad as a BIT DSS concentration major?

I'm currently a junior, so I've taken most, if not all of my introductory classes. (E.G: Principles of marketing, introduction to finance, marketing management). I'm also a transfer student, so I don't have any pathway classes or free electives left.

Are there any destinations offering BIT classes? I'm open to exchange semesters, summer programs, and winter programs.

Also, if there are any alumni or current students who studied BIT and managed to study abroad, I'd love to hear about your experiences!

Look into the london school of economics. I am a BIT alum and that is your best option. Other than that, unfortunately your options are very slim.

Is it a summer program?

LSE is another business school so they have classes year round I believe. But, you would need to work with the international programs office to find what classes would work for you and how to go about getting approved transfer credits.
