Panel Discussion/Presentation
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHaSS) is teaming up with the Institute of Government and Politics to bring you Around the World Wednesdays – a series of conversations with Utah State University alumni working internationally. Join us each month as we virtually visit a different region to learn the ins and outs of finding opportunities abroad, navigating a new culture, and exploring professional environments beyond our borders. On Wednesday, March 17th, we'll be joined by Porter Illi (BA International Studies and Political Science '12), Foreign Service Officer in the U.S. Department of State, currently serving in the External Political Unit at the U.S. embassy in Berlin. Porter earned a Master of Science in Foreign Service and a certificate in Diplomatic Studies from Georgetown University and has previously served tours in Mexico and Sri Lanka. Co-host Dr. Shannon Peterson will also be available to share opportunities for current USU students interested in interning abroad.
