Sierra Maree Taul, Summer 2012 Participant
The speakers were all very passionate about their work and it could be felt during the presentations.

Summer 2012 Participant
It was very rewarding to dig so deeply into health care policy. From my trip to Sweden, I have a new perspective that I will take with me as I go to medical school.

Howard Trey Wolf, Summer 2017 Participant
There is no single part of the program that jumps out at you simply because its all so amazing. The local sweds the study abroad program would have meetings with were often long time friends of the program and having that piece was invaluable. They were far more open about their options and Swedish culture than most normal sweds would likely have been.
