69传媒

The 69传媒 will soon be launching an exciting new international exchange program that will give student an opportunity to attend universities in the United States and Mexico.

A new NAFTA initiative, the 鈥楶rogram for North American Mobility' will partner 69传媒with five other universities in Canada, Mexico, and the US to create a consortium that focuses on the exchange of third and fourth year business students. The five other universities are Royal Roads University, Victoria, BC; Texas A & M University-Commerce Campus, Commerce, Texas; California State University, San Bernardino, California; University of Guanajuato, Guanajuato, Guanajuato, Mexico; and University of Colima, Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico.

Over the next three years, at least 12 students from 69传媒will be given the opportunity to take part in a one or two semester exchange, with funding available for each student to offset the cost of travel, language preparation, and costs of living. Students interested in attending schools in Mexico will be required to study Spanish either prior to departure at UPEI, or spend a semester studying at one of the host institutions.

Applications for the fall 2011 semester will be due by June 1, and the application process will begin again in September for the January, 2012 semester. Any questions about this new program can be forwarded to:
