Diplomat & Foreign Service Officer Speaker Series aims to encourage aspirants from our diverse graduate student population to explore careers in foreign policy and service and to gain a deeper understanding of cultural differences and how they play out in public policy and local laws. The last two years have resulted in a dearth of networking and professional mentoring opportunities; hence, the Office of Graduate Studies aims to connect career diplomats with our graduate students with cultural ties throughout the world, multilingual talents, and scholarly backgrounds in matters of transnational justice, global security, and public service fields.
This event is co-sponsored by the Student Activity Association and the Office of Graduate Studies. |
