  • From Vienna to Versailles the First World War and the Shaping of the Modern World
    From Vienna to Versailles The First World War and the shaping of the modern world Dates: June 19 - 30, 2017 Cost: $5,195 (Double Occupancy) Join Wake Forest University Professors Rebecca and Chuck Thomas on an unforgettable journey through the lingering history of World War I. !1 ! ! ! Daily Itinerary Join Chuck and Rebecca Thomas as they explore the cultural, political, and military impact of the First World War, the most significant event of the twentieth century. We will begin in Vienna, the former imperial capital, where the fin de siècle clash between tradition and modernity is reflected in the art and architecture of that magnificent city. A tour of Schönbrunn Palace will highlight Austria-Hungary’s former role as a powerhouse in Central Europe, and a trip to the Army History Museum’s Sarajevo Room will illuminate the assassination that precipitated the war. We’ll be sure not to miss the Salmbräu’s locally brewed beers and old world cuisine or the charms of Grinzing’s quaint village wine gardens along the way. From Vienna, we will continue to Hallstatt (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and Bad Ischl, Alpine retreats in the Salzkammergut region of Austria, where the elderly Kaiser Franz Joseph reluctantly signed the declaration of war on Serbia that began the world conflagration. We will then make our way southward, travelling along the famed South Styrian Wine Road (mercifully, war spared the exquisite wine producing regions of Austria) on the way to battlefields in Slovenia’s Julian Alps. There, along the emerald green Soča (Isonzo) River, Italian, Austro-Hungarian, and German forces clashed in twelve bloody battles that were immortalized in Ernest Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms.

  • Spring 98 4/16 Final
    AUSTRIANCENTER STUDIES FOR AUSTRIAN STUDIESNEWSLETTER Vol. 10, No. 2 Spring 1998 WU Vienna, U of Minnesota train executives for global economy by Daniel Pinkerton Since 1992, the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Man- agement (CSOM) and the Vienna Economics University (WU) have had a formal student exchange. By 1999, however, CSOM and WU hope to offer a joint Executive MBA that would require successful candidates to work with faculty from both institutions. Management students with an interest in the emerging Central and East European markets would be clear winners, since the combination of WU, Austria’s premier business school (and one of the best in Europe), with the CSOM, whose rankings continue to rise (currently, it is among the top 25 national business schools), would create a formidable international program. The Executive MBA at WU would become CSOM’s third “offshore” degree granting program, following the Executive Master’s program at Olsztyn University of Agriculture and Technology, Poland, established in 1995, and the Executive MBA program at Warsaw School of Eco- nomics, established in 1996. (Both Polish programs were developed in partnership with the Humphrey Institute’s Center for Nations in Transi- tion; see a related story on that Minnesota institution on p. 3.) The suc- cess of the Warsaw Executive MBA program in particular led CSOM to capitalize on its WU connection and explore the possibility of establish- ing a second offshore program there. After all, WU was Austria’s top business school and Vienna was renowned as the gateway to East Cen- tral Europe. “We knew from the beginning that we wanted to have more than just a simple exchange of students with WU,” said Professor Mahmood Zaidi, CSOM’s Director of International Studies.
