Abstract

Manchester Metropolitan offers short international programs that are accessible to all students and designed to make a minimal environmental impact. The business school’s international programs are scheduled to accommodate various religious celebrations, and half of the funded opportunities are reserved for students who receive financial aid. Before embarking on trips, students participate in carbon literacy training and make personal pledges to mitigate the environmental impact of their travel. In surveys, students indicate that even brief experiences enhance their professional, cultural, and educational capital.
