Science Study Abroad Programs

The Studying abroad experience at the University of Limerick in Ireland through Iowa State University offered a unique opportunity to immerse myself in Irish culture while continuing my academic journey. The University was located along the scenic River Shannon which allowed me to talk beautiful daily walks beside it, and the University of Limerick is known for its innovative programs, vibrant campus life, and strong focus on international collaboration which really allowed me to excel in academics while there. During my semester abroad, I engaged with a diverse student body, explored Ireland’s rich history and landscapes, and gained a global perspective that enhanced both my personal and professional growth. This experience fostered independence, adaptability, and lifelong memories.

I'm really enjoying my time doing an internship at KAUST. The environment here is not only intellectually stimulating but also incredibly welcoming, with top-notch facilities and a diverse, international community. I’ve had the chance to learn from leading researchers, gain hands-on experience in the lab, and explore exciting new areas of science—all while being surrounded by the stunning Red Sea landscape. It’s been an inspiring and rewarding experience so far.
