You've heard about globalization for years and no class you take seems to escape it, but have you ever seen firsthand a container ship load and unload every product we consume from overseas? You've heard about the rise of China for years, but have you really met both American and Chinese experts who have experienced the rewards and challenges of doing business with China? If you were to take a career readiness quiz on globalization and China, would you pass? The Graziadio School of Business and Management’s Department of Economics has designed a unique opportunity to see firsthand the Los Angeles shipping container port in San Pedro, followed by a luncheon and lecture on China held at the Queen Mary in Long Beach.
This event is exclusively for Graziadio School students and alumni.
