Program Impact
GLASS program has encouraged me to explore things that I otherwise would not be doing through the 5 GLASS windows. For instance, I probably will not choose to study abroad at NYU Abu Dhabi if not for GLASS, but that is actually one of my favorite experience in NYU and allowed me to learn about different culture as well as participate in research. GLASS also give me the opportunity to better understand who I am and what I want to do through the experiences I went through during the program and the couching GLASS provided. GLASS's resources is also very helpful in enabling me to attend conferences with its funding and connect me to internship.
