Stop by the Global Hub to view student poster presentations of global work case studies. These posters are a culmination of the Global Leadership course, a one-credit, interactive class that focuses on academic skills and American classroom resources, community engagement, and global leadership skills to use at Pitt, in the community, and in future employment roles. Global Leadership is open to first-year international students and domestic students, as well as upperclass domestic students.

Our Fulbright Scholar (FLTA) presents an immersive journey into Swahili language and Kenyan culture. Through engaging visuals and interactive activities, students explore the linguistic nuances of Swahili, its cultural significance, and practical applications. Delving deeper, they discover the diverse traditions, music, cuisine, and festivals that define Kenyan culture. Encouraged to ask questions and participate actively, students leave the presentation with a newfound appreciation for cultural diversity and a broader perspective on the world.
