Gilman Scholarship, Scholarship
A Gilman Scholarship enables American students to gain proficiency in diverse languages and cultures, skills that are critically important to their academic and career development. This gave me the opportunity to study in the beautiful city of Barcelona. Here I took 3 courses for a total of 12 units. The program focused not only on the architectural design of the city but the urban planning as well.
