I knew I wanted to spend a year abroad after I took an International Economics course in South Korea through a six week summer program. Economics tends to have a reputation for being analytical and data driven, and in many ways this is true, but economies are also influenced by socio-cultural nuances that are difficult to factor into into models. Data analysis is important, but in a world that is constantly growing increasingly interconnected through trade and technology, I hope that studying abroad in Japan during the 2021-22 academic year will help me come away from my time as an undergraduate at Humboldt with a more well-rounded and culturally sensitive understanding of my academic discipline.
