Program Structure 2013

Myrtle Beach meets Remagen

19 students of Coastal Carolina University accompanied by Associate Prof. Dr. Richard Martin, Assistant Professor Dr. Monica Fine and Cara Scheuer MBA visited the Rhineland in May. Through joint activities with the visiting CCU students, students of RheinAhrCampus and Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg they had excellent opportunities of finding out about academic life and social activities offered at CCU; through joint coursework they were able to familiarise themselves with the appropriate language for academic discussions and projects. The focus of this year's teaching modules was on practical exercises in Logistics and E-Business. Students had the chance to explore some important aspects of logistics and e-business by getting an introduction to the topic and by visiting our Laboratory for Logistics and e-Business. After a short presentation, the students performed some experiments in small groups involving German and American students. They also visited TRW Automotive in Koblenz where they received a tour of the company with a focus on logistical processes and solutions.

In addition to academic coursework, social activities ranging from sports events to a barbecue on the banks of the river Rhine,will help to foster strong relationships.

Remagen meets Myrtle Beach

The German participants of this year's summer school program were actively involved in preparing many of the activities offered during the first part of the summer school program. After the initial pre-departure meetings, contacts with CCU students were established - often using social media plaforms as a starting point. Through a buddy assignment, students ensured a smooth integration of the CCU students on campus and welcomed them to RheinAhrCampus and HS Bonn-Rhein-Sieg. This way, they prepared for their own stay at Coastal Carolina Univerity in August/September.
