Dear Colleagues, We are delighted to share with you that Darla Moore School of Business is now offering a wide range of exceptional international cohort program opportunities around the globe for undergraduate students. The program is developing as we continue developing new and exciting options. IB Cohort Programs bring Darla Moore School of Business students together with students from our partner schools, which are top universities worldwide. USC cohort students start their program on the USC campus, followed by multiple semesters abroad at locations based on their school(s) of choice. As a cohort participant, students prepare for this unparalleled experience from the very beginning of their studies. We currently have six different International Business Cohort Programs<http://mx.technolutions.net/mpss/c/9wA/jM0HAA/t.2cv/iXY8_XN6SHya6_1yujMdrA/h3/Jw3hq-2BheaIo5XsEAcmMlMEvhGuTd1W2p7qrTi0ff-2BvlY7BVQh6qN14RYlAh-2B9C5dqcTqLjuU6c79IvXdihPSU-2Fqfzwtv-2FLvyiKBc1Q6AB2z1VnIa43fOcYxvIFaJDFSQK-2BpMTQDG0uG17hheUm1ZIWoz9PY8DkQdfkvXxCU8-2FRVBQqSWc8VY-2BH6fymW3tQ5E>.
