Marketing is the science of how things are sold to the public. What attracts a consumer and how can these characteristics be highlighted? Marketing is strongly ground in the culture of the place of business. Studying abroad can give perspective on the cultural differences to marketing and broaden a marketing student’s base education. Knowledge of culture and lifestyle around the world can be a helpful skill for future success in the workplace.
