Spring Break 2025 Participant
The discussions with the mentors from the various companies we visited was the most rewarding. I learned how Americans could be valued in international careers and how to navigate living in a new country. I learned specifically what I would be able to accomplish with a law degree and how I would be able to pursue my career goals abroad.

I learned that, although my major isn't exactly business-oriented, having a specialization in anything can be beneficial to any company or organization - even if you can't see how that might be. For example, as a creative writing major I wasn't exactly sure what I would get out of our meetings with various companies, but I learned that my overall skills as a writer and a creative can play a significant role in a variety of departments. You don't know where you might fit in unless you make an effort to learn more and make connections.

I learned about a different culture in various aspects. The professional world, the shopping world, the food world, the social world, and simply navigating. Only go to this trip if you are interested in learning more about yourself and how to build a life outside of America. See how you would live and how you feel in various spaces. I have traveled before, but never for a professional trip. I found this interesting because it felt like "after work" I can go and do various activities. I guess I learned more abou thow I am on a fundamental basis and who I'm not.
