The MexiCanisius Import Project
International business students can participate in a unique project called MexiCanisius Imports, which combines the study of Spanish and Mexican arts and crafts, and North American business. Students travel to Mexico with two Canisius faculty members to buy arts and crafts from indigenous artisans in rural areas. Once they return to Buffalo, they work with other students to import the crafts to sell on campus. Through this project, students are able to support economic development in Mexico and learn about international business. The proceeds of the sales are put back into the project to keep it going for future classes.
