"Thanks to MOBT Global's generous Global Engagement Grant, my summer of 2023 was a life-changing journey through Morocco. From enchanting cities to historic sites and unforgettable cultural experiences, this adventure left an indelible mark on my heart. It's with immense excitement that I announce our upcoming Muskingum University study abroad program in Morocco, all made possible by MOBT Global. Thank you!"
Dr. Kathleen Cunniffe PeñaAssistant Professor of Spanish Muskingum University
"The MOBT Global Engagement Grant-funded Morocco trip was impeccably planned, offering invaluable insights for implementing faculty-led programs. We explored four diverse cities, admired modern infrastructure alongside historic sites, and visited leather, textile, and ceramic facilities, as well as a nonprofit supporting women. Our accommodations and meals were fantastic, and the MOBT team was exceptionally kind, attentive, and supportive. A marvelous experience."
Dr. Jyotika SaksenaProfessor and Graduate Director of International Relations and Political Science Program at University of Indianapolis
"My experience in Morocco with MOBT Global was extraordinary. It was my first time there, and the trip was perfectly organized. I was so impressed, I ended up staying after the grant period.
As a U.S. faculty member, I joined MOBT Global’s faculty introduction program. They guided me through Casablanca, Rabat, Fez, and Marrakesh. Everyone was warm and hospitable, and I especially loved Fez, with its 9th-century Medina and artisans. I can’t wait to bring students to Morocco, fully confident MOBT Global will provide a safe and exceptional experience."
