Barney Offering Study Abroad Trip in Northern Spain

The Barney School of Business is excited to offer our annual Study Abroad program in Northern Spain again from March 14–22, 2025.

The course is based primarily in Northern Spain again with a couple of days visit to Madrid. Students will visit the Mondragon Cooperative Corporation businesses and at least one other sustainability-focused business. Barney undergraduate, graduate, Arts & Sciences undergraduate students, MSOP students, and CETA students have participated in the past. The course will be 3 credits for IB310 or IB610. UISS and UISC credits are possible.

Barney student Kylar Maldonado ‘25, M’26 didn’t think he would ever have the possibility to study abroad while being a full-time student and having a full-time job, but he reflects on his experience attending this past spring’s trip by saying “I encourage everyone: Step out of your comfort zone and explore! You'll meet such kind people, experience beauty, and create memories, while gaining credits for your courses. From first-years to grad students in different levels of their established careers, it was smiles and laughs galore.”

Undergraduate Barney students pay no additional tuition. The travel portion of the course costs $3,600 (maximum) this year and each Barney undergraduate student will receive a $1,000 scholarship from the Dean’s office—reducing the cost to $2,600. Graduate students pay only half of the usual graduate tuition for the course.

A deposit is needed no later than Dec. 1 and is refundable before the flight deposit date or if the course does not fill.
