FACES OF YFU experience in Japan helped me decide that I wanted to pursue a degree in Japanese. After learning so much about the culture first-hand I realized that I would love to study the language, history and culture further. This decision also encouraged me to begin studying international affairs and even another foreign language, Mandarin Chinese,” said Princic. As Kevin immerses himself in his senior year, he says, “I am still making plans for after graduation, but for now I intend to apply for Fulbright. If accepted I would spend 10 months in Japan researching and attending language courses at a graduate school. My other options are pursuing a Master’s Degree in International Relations focusing on Asian Relations. Ultimately, I hope to end up in the State Department or maybe even Foreign Service.” If you would like to connect with Kevin or discuss a job or internship opportunity, please email [email protected]. - Story compiled by John Favazzo INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AT YFU USA AND INTERNATIONAL OFFICES Are you interested in a career in international education or building your skills in marketing, graphic design, project management, public relations, or any number of other interesting fields?
