Lindsey Bushman, a native of Bettendorf, Iowa, has been selected to study abroad this fall with the University of Iowa Consortium Institute for Management and Business Analysis (CIMBA) Italy program. Bushman, who is majoring in Marketing, will be studying abroad for 12 weeks in Paderno del Grappa, Italy at the base of the Italian Alps.

While abroad, students complete 12-18 credit hours in the areas of business, journalism, communication, and Italian.
