The Cal Lutheran Experience

Global Studies

Global studies has enabled me to look at the interrelations of societies from an objective point of view. As a freshman, I decided I wanted my college career to truly be a “global study” immersion. I studied abroad for three semesters in Costa Rica, Chile, Thailand, and participated on a travel seminar to Cuba. Being able to study and live the effects of globalization in both western and eastern cultures has inspired me to further my understanding of this phenomenon.

My objective is to prepare a student to succeed in the classroom and post-classroom life by filling my classroom and advising with a practical and theoretical learning experience.

My favorite experience was becoming a Departmental Assistant. I loved working on psychology-related tasks and projects, getting to know fellow students and professors who have become great friends and mentors, and challenging myself to apply for the Honors Program, which I wouldn’t have heard of otherwise.
