The pandemic has affected many things in education. One happens to be how The University of Baltimore offers study abroad programs. In 2023, we had a comeback for our program. The Merrick School of Business offered three Global Field Study courses this year—Great Britain, Thailand and Switzerland.

A dozen students recently returned to the U.S. after seven days in Lucerne, Switzerland. Our host university HSLU – Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, welcomed Dr. Mikhail Pevzner and his students on June 4. The course took place in the classroom, with site visits around Lucerne, Basel and Zurich.
