Additional Information

Your days in residency will be hectic with classes, group projects, business excursions, local social and cultural events, and study groups--all of which help you leverage the opportunity to build your network while in the program. Your faculty and classmates expect your full attention while in residency and you won't have time to engage in normal work activities, so please plan accordingly.  To help illustrate the rigor and pace of your experience in residency, below is a sample schedule for a 2-week residency in Russia and the United Kingdom.
