The roundtable will be moderated by Ryan Calabretta-Sajder, director of the International and Global Studies Program, who will guide the discussion on the value of global learning and how students can integrate international perspectives into their academic and professional goals.

Students who attend will have the opportunity to ask questions, explore career paths and discover how international and global studies can complement other majors while opening doors to careers in government, international business, non-profit organizations, education and more.

The event is free and open to all U of A students. Dinner will be provided.
