Beginning Their Journey - 2011 Global UGRAD Students

This fall, youth from around Central Asia and Eastern Europe arrived to study at American universities to pursue their dreams for developing their home countries. Through an intensive academic program, internships, and community service experiences, these students are building the skills, knowledge and attitudes they will need to become successful and productive global citzens. Watch and listen to the faces and voices of the Global UGRAD program, sharing their goals for the future.
