It’s always a joy to travel with our students! This past week, six of our IB students accompanied Dr. Sanjay Paul to Konstanz, Germany and Genève, Switzerland as a part of a collaborative study for Dr. Paul’s International Organizations Seminar class. They partnered with students from Konstanz University to conduct research, host workshops, and cultivate intercultural discussion. Together they visited International Organizations including the WTO, WHO, UN, and the US, Swiss, and German Missions. Thank you to all of our hosts for your hospitality!

Students in Dr. Varamini’s Introduction to International Business Class finished off the school year strong with their country and industry analysis presentations. Each student or pair of students selected a country and industry that interested them before spending several weeks researching and conducting an economic analysis. They then composed a research paper and presented their studies to their peers. Great job all!

We are so proud of our students who participated in Elizabethtown College's School of Business “Pitch Perfect” event- a one-minute business pitch competition where students of all majors presented a business idea to pitch to investors, aiming to help reduce food waste in America.

Belle Brodbeck ’25, won first place for her pitch based on designing a product life cycle for cities. She proposed for food to be collected and transformed into fertilizer, to then be sold to grow more quality food products. Saki Takatsu ‘26 won second place for her incredible pitch and Billy Valdez ‘25 won second place with his wonderful ideas. All three are a part of our International Business Program!!

We appreciate and want to thank them for sponsoring the event! Congratulations to all!
