Student Testimonials

Texas State students participated in the GOLE program during summer 2021

CHANGING GLOBAL PERSPECTIVES

"I used to think that the study abroad programs were a way to score easy credit without having to do much…now I think that these programs synthesize and deliver more practical, real-world business education than almost any other class I've been in."

"I used to think that I'd never been able to travel outside the US…now I think that the possibilities are far more realistic." 

"I used to think that after a long career in logistics and operations for a multinational company, that I had a reasonable understanding of global business…now I think that there is always more to learn as this is a very big world."

"I used to think that it was impossible to learn and be immersed in a different culture over zoom…now I think that you can be on zoom and learn deeply about different cultures and places! "

"I used to think that I would never work abroad…now I think that it would be a great experience and something I want to look into."

"I used to think that virtual study abroad was not as fulfilling …now I think that virtual study abroad is worthwhile if you cannot actually go abroad."
