In learning how to deconstruct and analyze international affairs, MMC’s IS department has taught me that the world systems are all part of the same intricate fabric. As a post-graduate, this has allowed me to see the core value of global issues, while also understanding all the elements in which they were created. MMC’s IS department also takes full advantage of its locations. Throughout my time as an IS student my professors took their students on field trips to the United Nations, lectures at other universities and to the countless NGO’s located in New York. Needless to say, the IS department and all the professors were extremely helpful and persistent in placing their students in internships where they could obtain value on-hands experience in the international community. The IS department not only prepared me for a career in the international forum, but also taught me what to expect and what was to be expected of me.”</p></div><div class="lw_profiles_info"><div class="lw_profiles_name"><a href="/live/profiles/1093-bridget-gormley">Bridget Gormley</a></div><div class="lw_profiles_104"><p> Class of 2013, Major in <a href="/departments/international-studies/">International Studies</a></p></div></div>
