Why did you choose the GRS specializations that you did?
I am interested in sustainability and how it can be integrated into development. I am still unsure what aspects of development I would like to approach, however, I am very interested in the economic and historical perspective of development from a global lens, hence why my regional specialization is international.
Where did you travel to (or where are you going) for your international experience(s)?
For my international experience, I took LFS302B in Bogor, Indonesia.
When did your international experience(s) take place?
May-June 2023
What did you learn from your international experiences?
I learned about impact analysis and the importance of approaching development projects from a local perspective.
What do you like best about the GRS program?
I really enjoy that I can combine courses that further deepen my understanding and knowledge of topics I am interested in. I also like that I can meet peers in the same program who are studying many different global issues with various career goals and learn from one another.
What year do you expect to graduate?
2024
