Curricular Development

With our global partner network of 2500+ international organizations and varying formats of industry engagements, Bschool Travel supports curricular development that aligns with desired programmatic outcomes. See how we can support with your academic pro

Company Visits

Tried and true and a staple of global immersions. From multinational organizations, to governmental agencies, NGOs, startups and everything in between, we arrange company visits that are aligned with the course objectives. Our speakers are coached to deliver relevant content that is aligned with curricular theme of each course.

Consulting Projects

We source and scope impactful global company projects that are challenging, yet achievable. Ranging from 2 weeks to semester-long, our project deliverables are often strategic in nature and typically require students to apply many of their classroom frameworks.

Business Challenges

Gone are the days of the early 2000s CEMEX case study. Our Business Challenges provide students the opportunity to solve real-world industry challenges in real time. They are much shorter in nature when compared to consulting projects, usually spanning from one-day sprints to week-long competitions.

Panel Discussions

Rather than visiting one company, we also coordinate panel discussions with several thought leaders within a specific industry or subject matter. Our panelists provide open discourse, unique perspectives, and open Q&A to broaden the student learning experience.

Guest Lectures

With our network of university partners around the globe, we coordinate guest lectures and classroom sessions at many of the most prestigious international business schools. For cross-cultural learning opportunities, consider inviting students from the host university to participate in your classroom sessions.

Student Management

The student experience is second to none. That’s why we go beyond the travel to elevate the student experience every step of the way. See how we support our university partners with their student management prior, during, and after their global study tours.

Health, Safety, and Risk Management

Safety and Risk Management support is our top priority. Whether it’s pre departure health and safety assessments or our 24/7 emergency response team, we work to mitigate risks throughout every step of the process. See how we support with risk management below.

Risk Management

Prior to any program, our team receives weekly risk management reports and conducts global safety and security monitoring for each country of travel. These reports help guide decision making for any necessary rerouting throughout the itinerary.

24/7 Emergency Operations

During your trip, students and faculty will have 24/7 access to our in-country emergency operations number. From operational support to emergency response, they’re there to support around the clock.

Local Program Manager

All Bschool Travel immersions are supported by a local country program manager. Our program managers are not only there for logistical support, but they are first aid and CPR certified and trained in emergency response procedures.

Safety Guidelines

Bschool Travel has developed robust on-tour safety guidelines and crisis response procedures, for which all team members are trained on.

Mental Health Assistance

We offer access to mental health services, both prior and during each of our study tours.

Insurance

Bschool Travel has best-in-class insurance coverage to provide peace of mind during all of our global study tours.

“After multiple disappointments with other third-party providers, I was desperate to find a reliable partner to support my MBA study tours. Bschool Travel was recommended to me by a colleague, so I reached out for a bid. They provided an excellent proposal at a competitive price. They then went on to wow me with their fast response times, incredible business network, and friendly (and patient) program managers. When the time came to run the program, it went off without a hitch. The business visits were immersive and interesting, the cultural activities authentic, and the overall organization seamless. The students, faculty and staff could not speak highly enough of Bschool’s support on the ground. I have added Bschool Travel to my list of preferred providers and plan to continue using them for my MBA programming. I cannot recommend them enough for your global business focused study abroad needs!”

“We first partnered with Bschool Travel during the pandemic to help us deliver our experiential learning programs in a new format. With their support, we delivered immersion programs in a virtual format and then added domestic in-person programs - both of which have had resounding student feedback. Their virtual programs delivered high caliber speakers, challenging and immersive consulting projects, and unique cultural experiences. Bschool Travel’s curricular design team took the lead on developing a robust live case study with challenging, yet achievable deliverables for our students. We were even more impressed with the strength of Bschool Travel’s domestic business network, with project partners including the likes of ExxonMobil and the Seattle Kraken. Both our domestic and virtual programs have had staying power since the pandemic, as the affordability allows more of our students to participate!"

“Partnering with Bschool Travel for our Executive MBA Global Labs has made such an improvement to the trip planning process! Given the complexity of EMBA programs, including the student-faculty expectations, ever-changing executive schedules, and individualized customization requests, we have historically faced challenges when working with outside vendors. Thankfully with Bschool, we no longer have to worry about managing these interconnected components, allowing us to focus on other impactful aspects of the programs. The teams’ experience with EMBA students, their flexibility, and their one-on-one student customer care has truly made a difference in the preparation and execution of these trips.”

“We were in search of a provider that could provide high-quality, consistent experiences across all of the global destinations we conduct our study tours. We found our partner with Bschool Travel! They support many of our study tours in South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. We have been most impressed with the strength of their business connections and ability to provide quality experiences across all of these regions. As former MBA students participating on similar programs, Bschool Travel founders truly understand the business school population and their needs. They are always suggesting ways to enhance the students’ experience and are diligent about making sure the trips are successful. Best of all, they are extremely approachable and delightful to work with. From academic content curation, to travel logistics, to student customer care, we know we will get a consistent experience with Bschool Travel, no matter the destination.”
