Global Engagement is Not a One-and-Done!
The benefits of your study abroad / study away experience don’t have to stop when you arrive back home. Instead, you can use it to enrich (and transform) your personal and professional life – for the rest of your life.
You could:
- Reflect on all you learned and consider ways to continue your learning
- Highlight your new-found skills and knowledge on your resume, in cover letters, and in job interviews – employers are extremely interested in applicants with global competencies!
- Get your graduate degree abroad
- Apply for a Fulbright
- Teach abroad
- Work in the field of international education
- Become a host “family” for an international student attending college in the U.S.
- Keep up with your language skills
- Become a member of Rotary International
- Impress your friends by becoming proficient in cooking your host culture’s food
- Go abroad again!
- And so many more.
