Student Stories

As the spring 2023 semester begins, I am reminiscing about the fall 2022 semester and can gladly say that I am incredibly proud, confident, and yet heartbroken. Confident in my academic journey, proud of my achievements, and heartbroken over losses.

Today we’ll welcome another new blog contributor, LLM student Birendra. The LLM is a unique degree focused primarily on international law, and we’ll look forward to hearing about Birendra’s experience throughout the year.

I’m always excited to introduce readers to new student bloggers. Particularly so this year, as we have some new contributors from some of Fletcher’s more specialized degree programs. Today we’ll meet Gautier, a student in the Master of Arts in Transatlantic Affairs (MATA) program. The MATA is a jointly-awarded degree between Fletcher and the College of Europe based in Belgium, whose students spend time at both institutions as well as in an internship focused on the Transatlantic relationship. Take it away, Gautier!

Today we’ll check in with second-year MALD Christine, who shares some updates on her busy summer and an equally busy fall semester

The best thing about any new academic year, of course, is the return of our students, both those just starting and those continuing their Fletcher journeys. Today we’ll hear from Emma, segueing from a busy summer to an even busier fall.

An update today from rising second-year MALD student Christine, back recently from the annual Israel Trek.

Three semesters down and my journey at The Fletcher School is at a penultimate stage. After completing a major part of my academic requirements, I was fortunate to start my summer internship at USCIB in Washington D.C.

Today we’ll check in with Sapna, dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s of her Fletcher student days.
