Enrique's Education Abroad Experience

"Studying abroad in Singapore was the best combination of immersing myself in an unknown. culture and also exposing myself to different perspectives and ways of life. There, I took regression analysis or religion in Southeast Asia courses, and also learn simplified Chinese to immerse into the new the culture. Over my free time, I was able to connect with other exchangers to plan trips over weekend to other countries. Also, I met local people who showed me around the city, help me adapt to academic dynamic and invite me to play in an Intramural soccer tournament. Overall, was a complete experience and I will encourage everyone to try exit their comfort zone by exploring unimaginable destinations.

I've always had a desire and the curiosity of meeting the culture of the other half of the world, and in Singapore, being a highly developed country with the most prestigious university in Asia, I was sure that I'll be gaining exposure to a whole new culture and dynamic. For this reason, I chose to go to Singapore and was the most accurate decision.

Capture the moments, dedicate time to know people's background, try new food with someone else, know how and when to say no, meet the local people, and there will always be setbacks. Organize your study abroad prior with time. Course enrolling is one of the most energy and time-consuming research I've ever done.    "
