One of the common conversation topics between the American and British students was our cultural differences. Of course, in study abroad preparation I learned basic contrasts, but there was much more to learn through social interaction. An average Saturday, if not on a weekend trip out of country, was spent in a museum learning about British history. The academic setting was very different from the framework of NCU. This could be attributed to the large University I attended, but also the instructors were not as involved in student\u2019s studies. My largest take away was the knowledge to handle technical travel details, which was a valuable skill among Study Abroad students. These coordination skills are an essential aspect in the future career path I hope to follow as an event planner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GLST 295, Study Abroad<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lauren Kramp<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PFB 003<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10:00 &#8211; 10:30 AM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Studying Abroad in England Studying in another country proves challenging in more ways than one but outweighs those difficulties with many benefits.
