GAV and University of Delaware IGS have allowed us to not only explore a new country, but provide us with job experience and learning opportunities we would not be able to gain in the United States. We've learned that different countries have different working environments are based around their cultural standards, what we may consider standard practice may be seen as odd or even offensive in other countries. Singapore has its own working and office culture that is very different from the United States. It is imperative to learn about office culture before entering the workplace as to not offend coworkers or embarrass yourself by perpetuating a negative stereotype.
