| Read what a few of our recent International Scholar Laureate Program Delegation on Diplomacy scholars have to say about the experience of attending the program.
"This program allowed me to look at the diplomacy field from a different perspective. It showed me just how diverse countries are despite having similar governments or comparable economies. It also led me to believe that Australia would be a place where I could practice my profession."

"I gained a lot of insight into the field of international affairs which I believe will help me in my future professional career, hoping to work in Europe."

"South Africa has led me to realize my passion to help the world. The country and its people have taught me that beauty still exists and that forgiveness is a living virtue. I have gained knowledge that the developing world needs our support and that we as the next generation should vocalize this need back at home."

"I gained valuable professional and cultural insight in diplomatic relations between the United States and China, specifically in issues such as: bilateral trade, globalization, environmental affairs and human rights. This program has broadened my perspective to the exciting career fields that the U.S. Department of State has to offer."
