SCU Study Abroad
In this episode of Abroaden Your Horizons, we talk with SCU student and Marketing major, Jason Leon, about his summer program abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark through DIS. We discuss how his experience abroad helped him step outside his comfort zone and become more independent, and how the offerings of his program allowed him to explore different parts of Europe as well as experience a unique academic setting. We also chatted about identity abroad, being a Gilman Award recipient, and the cultural transitions he experienced in Denmark.
