MSC L.T. and Jessie W. Jordan Institute for International Awareness

The MSC L.T. and Jessie W. Jordan Institute serves as a catalyst for international engagement, providing resources and initiatives that enhance the global competencies of the Texas A&M community. Through partnerships, scholarships, and immersive experiences abroad, we aim to inspire a deep appreciation for diverse cultures and perspectives. Our purpose is to prepare students to be leaders in a global society, equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to address complex international challenges.

I had the privilege of participating in ILAP Singapore during the summer of 2015. My time in working in Singapore and immersing myself in the local culture has proven to be one of the most defining experiences I have had. I gained a great deal of insight into different ways of life and thinking, and thoroughly expanded my understanding of the world and what it means to live in an increasingly global society. I also found a second home in Singapore; it is a place a truly love, and would return to in a heartbeat if the opportunity arises. I cannot express my gratitude enough to the L.T. Jordan Institute for International Awareness for granting me this opportunity.
