Spring Break 2023 Participant
The hybrid portion of this course was very helpful in balancing other schoolwork, and I appreciated the couple in-person meetings we had, where I got to know my fellow classmates. I also enjoyed the amount of free time we had during the trip. I got to almost completely customize my trip to my interests while forming close relationships with the other students.

One of the most rewarding elements of the program was meeting with KU alums who live in London. These encounters provided invaluable insights into the professional landscape and offered guidance on navigating life in the city. Their stories and advice inspired me and fueled my ambition to one day return to London to work and live.

The most rewarding element of the program was the combination of preparation and real-world exposure. The pre-departure sessions helped me develop the skills to engage more intentionally, such as asking thoughtful questions and reflecting on my experiences. Once in London, I was able to apply those skills in real time. This balance made the experience more impactful because I was not just observing, but actively learning and connecting with professionals. It also allowed me to better understand how cross-cultural communication works in practice.
