Our alumni

"I completed my Bachelor of Arts and Social Sciences in International Relations, and now I work in Journalism. While these are two different fields, the skills I learned from my degree like, research, formulating a strong argument and understanding the world, helped prime me for my current role in covering international news as a social newsgathering reporter at NBC News."
