HBCUs Abroad in Ghana

At HBCUs Abroad, we believe that learning is a continuous process that should never end. Your professional development program in Ghana will focus on:

Social Innovation and Entrepreneurial Leadership. 

Students will be assigned in groups to different local companies and will spend most of the time working on pre-assigned projects and operational tasks as assigned. This is a great opportunity for business-minded students to network, enhance their resume and soft skills, and gain real skills in a developing economy. This program offers a comprehensive balance of career development and unforgettable cultural discovery, from visiting the Cape Coast Castle to exploring the lush rainforests of Kakum National Park.
