The Peace, Trade and Development Program is over but the students left with quite some impressions. One of the highlights was the visit to Google Headquarters in Silicon Valley where students were able to see new technologies and innovations.

Over a four-week period, participants of the PTD program work through an integrated curriculum covering trade policy, development, conflict resolution and social change, and their impact on crucial global issues. Classes are delivered by policy and business faculty from the Monterey Institute, and include both lectures and “hands-on” learning from case studies, simulations, and group discussions. A series of site visits allow participants to see these concepts in action, taking advantage of California’s unique role in the global economy.
