(AP) -- The management school at the University of Michigan-Flint is planning a November trade mission to Russia. The school says the Nov. 7-15 trip offers businesses a chance to expand international sales at a time of economic struggles at home.
The university is working with the accounting company Plante & Moran to plan the trip. It will focus on industrial machinery and robotics, precision instruments, medical devices, environmental control technologies, and information technology.
The university says it's accepting applications until Sept. 25.
