I had an extremely positive experience in the Haller Global Honors Fellowship. I felt like it was a chance to experience what study abroad would be like at Pitt.

Reflecting on the Program
I thought the most interesting site visit we went on was the one to the Guiness Enterprise Center, an office building and organization that works on empowering startups.

Many of the technology companies with…
