This session will highlight diverse avenues and strategies for pursuing a rewarding, dynamic career in study abroad. The panelists will consider how theories, methods, and experiences from their graduate studies apply to their current work and engage the audience in a critical conversation on the merits of pursuing a doctorate or other credentials.
