Italian Food - From Production to Policy

A new short-term study abroad for agriculture, business and European Studies undergraduate students was developed through joint cooperation of CIBER and the Institute for Food and Agricultural Sciences (IFAS), Italian Food—From Production to Policy. The program travels around agricultural regions of Italy and focuses on three major themes: 1) variation in the production/marketing systems of key Italian agricultural products and their associated value-added industries that included citrus, olives-olive oil, parmesan cheese, and vineyards-wineries, 2) how European agriculture operates in an environment that differs from that found in the United States and 3) implications of the first two themes for US food exports to Europe and European exports to the United States.

Research Opportunities in Africa: Research Tutorials Abroad

In a new program offered by CIBER, students may spend two to four weeks in Africa working with faculty researching and collecting data. Faculty members must initiate research projects by submitting proposals to CIBER, and they also organize all aspects of the trip, including accommodations; the call for proposals is usually posted in November. Winning projects receive funding to cover faculty and student costs. All proposals must support CIBER's mission—to enhance the competitiveness of U.S. firms abroad. Relevant projects may examine a particular national product market, fundamentals of a nation's economy, ethnographic characteristics that affect product usage, or language and cultural constraints that affect competitiveness. Interested students should contact CIBER.
