The Turkish-American Chamber of Commerce of the Southeast United States this week is leading a study-abroad trip to Turkey for Kennesaw State University business students.

From March 7-16, students from the Coles College of Business will visit a variety of organizations in the cities of Istanbul, Ankara (the capital) and Bursa.  

The itinerary includes visits to banks, businesses, government groups, chambers of commerce and more. 

Kennesaw State has declared 2008-09 the “Year of Turkey,” carrying into the 24th year its annual tradition of a university-wide, in-depth country study.

Each academic year, the program features lectures, performances, exhibits and films on the country of choice.

Since the kick-off in October, Kennesaw has hosted Turkish legislators, diplomats and performers in conjunction with the Istanbul Center in Atlanta as well as the Turkish chamber.
