Dr. Lynn Johnson has been working overtime with Dean Singleton, UNT's Study Abroad Office and Sheffield-Hallam University - Sheffield, England to develop a program that will give our business majors the opportunity to study abroad this summer.

Dr. Johnson will teach two classes, Management Concepts and International Business Operations, in a joint program with Sheffield-Hallam University, one of the largest institutions of higher learning in the United Kingdom. Sheffield-Hallam has over 3000 full- and part-time students enrolled in Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral programs.

Current plans call for students to attend several class sessions at UNT before they leave for London on July 13 for a 25 day summer session. Four days will be spent in London and 21 days in Sheffield. Classes will be held Monday through Wednesday, with Thursdays reserved for special events connected with the courses. Friday through Sunday will be free for students to explore on their own. Eligible students will receive a partial scholarship to maintain costs at a reasonable level.

We hope that our UNT/COBA Summer Study Program will become an integral part of our curriculum each year. As it does, we will continue to enrich our understanding of international topics and research, for both our students and faculty.
