Learn MoreBeing someone who enjoys all aspects of global travel as well as agriculture, this experience was one of the most memorable and important of my college career. While in Argentina we spent much of our time meeting with grain companies, many of which are leaders in the international grain trading industry. These meetings were extremely influential for me since after college I hope to start a career in the grain industry, working in sales and marketing.
Brady Pate Experience Argentina
This trip was not only an educational experience, but also a personal experience. Because of this experience, I am much more understanding of the different cultures in the world, and also more aware of different ways to produce in the agriculture industry. Having experienced what many others have not had the chance to was truly eye-opening for me. Before this, I had only experienced the United States culture and agriculture, but this trip has opened me up to a whole new world.
Sarah Bryant Experience Argentina
I had the incredible opportunity to spend three and a half months living, studying, and working in London, England. I built my professional network while applying the principles I have learned in Agricultural Economics classes as an intern for an international environmental nonprofit, in a role that was as rewarding as it was educational. My background in Ag Econ exposed me to the importance of the intersection of policy, economics, agriculture, and the environment and exercising this knowledge with research on its application to international institutions was rewarding.
