I enjoyed the small class sizes and community events.
How would you describe, in a nutshell, the experience of studying at BCB?
A place to explore all of your ideas from whatever perspectives you want. A small community of students and professors who try to learn from each other.
Write briefly about one of your courses that left a lasting impression on you.
Origins of Political Economy was taught by an amazing professor and she gave me so much contextual knowledge that I feel has shaped how I understand political and economic thought.
How has BCB influenced the path you've taken since completing the program?
It’s made me appreciate the liberal arts and has inspired me to study politics and economics from a different perspective.
Where are you now and what are you doing?
I am doing my Masters on Socio-Ecological Economics and Policy at the University of Vienna.
Any advice you would give to students considering BCB?
Advocate for yourself and remember that your voice matters.
