鈥淩eal growth takes place at the edge of your comfort zone. By fully immersing yourself in a foreign culture and academic system, you discover many fundamental truths about who you are, and who you wish to become. The experience widened the lens through which I view engineering.鈥�

鈥淚 learned so much more in my four months in Rome than I ever thought possible. The chemical engineering classes were engaging, and they took us on site visits to see how what we were learning applied to life in Italy. Outside of the classroom, I had the opportunity to form lifelong friendships.鈥�

鈥淪tudying abroad gave me a sense of independence and motivation that continues to drive me even after I've returned home. Being able to learn and work on a team with engineers from Ireland was one of the greatest and most valuable academic experiences I've had as a Villanova student.鈥�
