Student Stories
DBU offers a variety of options for students—from amazing faculty-led trips to an assortment of ideas for trips you could take on your own in a socially responsible way. So many great stories come out of these experiences! On the links below you will find such stories told by the students as they enjoy the wonders of each trip.

"Learning outside the classroom gave me insight into the business world and how different businesses work cross-culturally. Rather than reading about different scenarios from a textbook, we were blessed to visit a few companies in Seoul, such as Samsung and Hyosung. We even met the CEO of PepsiCo in East Asia and spoke to him about management styles and how we can apply them in our future careers."

"Students experience a unique way of learning [during travel study trips] that tends to be more impactful than a traditional classroom lecture. Subjects, concepts, theories, and life lessons can be seen with a 'boots on the ground' experience."
We hope these testimonies inspire you to join one of our travel opportunities soon!
