We love hearing from our alumni about their time in Germany! Fall '22 Gilman-DAAD Germany Scholar Chandler Palmer had this to say about his experience with the Gilman-DAAD Germany Scholarship:
“I am extremely thankful for the opportunity given to me by the Gilman-DAAD Germany Scholarship to have studied and interned abroad in Berlin, Germany. The experience afforded me the opportunity to work with an international tech startup that worked to increase energy access to high poverty areas around the world. This experience has shaped me professionally to pursue similar jobs as a college graduate. In addition, I discovered how precious diversity is and developed a love for cross-cultural immersion.”
