Students have much to choose from with GEO, but we know that busy advisors don’t always have the time to look at every program option before making a recommendation. To assist with that, GEO is launching a monthly “spotlight” article for our partners focusing on certain areas of study. Hopefully, this will allow quick familiarization with GEO programs in particular fields, and it can also act as a quick reference guide.
GEO is always expanding its offerings, so the best resource will always be our website, but for those new to GEO or looking for some quick details to help make a recommendation, we hope these monthly advising spotlights will be helpful.
The advising spotlight this month is on business. There are many programs that offer a full business-related curriculum, and there are other shorter, specialty programs as well.
