How International Students Navigate Funding and the SC Application Process

Students participating in SC face logistical challenges ranging from funding to the applications process and navigating the hundreds of exhibits in the exhibition hall. Three students from last year’s conference explain how their professors helped inform them of opportunities, write recommendations letters and secure funding. They also discuss the benefits of their participation such as meeting other students and leaders from corporations, universities and national laboratories. The students in this video speak in their native languages but English subtitles are shown. They represent The Federal University of São Carlos in Brazil; Xavier University, Cincinnati; and Jaume I University in Spain.

Inspired by the students in the above video? Check out all the excellent opportunities for students at Students@SC.
