Congratulations on your recent program abroad! You are brimming with stories of your experiences abroad and insights into your host country's culture. Now it is important to decompress the experience, translate your transferable skills into résumé and cover-letter builders, and network with peers with whom you share similar experiences.
Institutions in the Pittsburgh area have partnered to create the Three Rivers Reentry Conference through Lessons from Abroad for our study-abroad students. As part of the mission for study abroad offices across the country, we invite you to attend the Conference at Duquesne University on Saturday, October 29, 2016.
Conference highlights include:
•Meeting other recent study abroad returnees from the Pittsburgh area
