Only a few spots left for 2015.
If you're teaching International Business or Marketing, Cross-Cultural Management, or related courses and want to add an experiential component to your course, the X-Culture is accepting applications for 2015-1 semester (Jan-Mar and Mar-Apr tracks).
X-Culture is a partnership among IB professors from around the world.
We add the experiential component to our courses by teaming up our students for a semester.
Over 3,000 MBA/EMBA/Undergraduate students from 100 universities in 40 on 6 continents participate in X-Culture in a given semester.
The students are put in Global Virtual Teams of about 7 (each from a different country) and the teams work for a semester on real-life IB challenges presented by real-life companies, thereby experiencing first-hand the challenges and learning best practices of international teamwork.
Here is how it works: www.x-culture.org
Here is why you as a professor want to add it to your course: www.x-culture.org/for_instructors.html
