Why did you choose this study abroad program? I chose this study abroad program because: Urban economics and the impact of cities on economic mobility, culture and people’s lifestyle are of particular interest to me. The Thailand study abroad program provides the opportunity to thoughtfully engage with Thai culture, real estate industry leaders and policymakers to understand the drivers of the local economy. Learning and interacting with the diverse elements like food and traditions in Bangkok and the other iconic cities is such a compelling experience.
