Focus on sustainability and responsible management.

Your International Business Trip
Explore, learn, grow.
During the optional International Business Trip, you get out of EADA for a first-hand look at innovation and its role in sustainability through classes in partner universities and visits abroad. Hear from the professionals  facing today's most pressing business challenges every day: How are they adapting? What solutions have they found? Where do we go from here?
Previous classes have visited Maastricht (the Netherlands) and Brussels (Belgium), where participants networked with innovative leaders in a wide variety of fields in both the public and private sector. This is your opportunity to learn about the day-to-day life of different industries in real operating environments.
As a complementary learning component, previous classes have gained unique insight into the purpose, goals and approach of the United Nations University-Merit and explored new ground with in-depth lectures from faculty at the partner Maastricht University.
