IBSU student Mikheil Arakelyan wins Global UNIGRAD

Meet IBSU student Mikheil Arakelyan, a Global UNIGRAD winner who is currently studying at the University of Missouri.

“I’m always looking for ways to expand the variety of my student life and learn a lot. I applied for the U.S. Department of State’s Global Undergraduate Exchange Program (Global UGRAD) in January 2022 and was awarded full funding for one semester at the University of Missouri.

I’ve been attending classes at the University of Missouri in Columbia for a while now. On top of that, I’m set to start working on various projects at my host university, but I won’t forget my alma mater. It is my intention to initiate joint projects between the two universities.

My career is developing tremendously thanks to IBSU. My lecturers’ and the administration’s unwavering support is crucial since it spurs me on to keep progressing. “
