<p>laymen - at this level both schools are global brands so not exactly that - my personal take is that Duke with Engage & Focus programs has identified how to get you abroad - in the classroom, as a volunteer on a civic engagement project, service opportunities, etc. Dartmouth definitely has students going abroad b/c of the shorter terms and more chances to work into the schedule. Just that it appears outwardly anyway that the global focus is language intensive learning or something to further the future finance/Wall Street career. Not sure how “engaged” globally for service/volunteer work. Slightly nuanced direction of both global brands, IMHO.</p>
