S4 E10: Putting the Study in Study Abroad

Students can explore different academic interests abroad, just like they can on campus! Marion Patsalides ’28, Mechanical Engineering major and Global Security Studies minor, studied in Strasbourg where she could take classes for both her major and minor. She walks us through a day biking around the beautiful city along the rivers, stopping for lunch at a boulangerie, and heading to classes at the local engineering university. Marion also gives advice on not getting a class you want due to scheduling conflicts, a common student experience, and how she ended up loving the class she switched into even more. Tune in to learn how the unexpected can be the best part of your experience, if you roll with the punches!
