GW International Education Program

Join us TODAY, Tuesday, Dec 2 at 6 PM in Elliott School Room 113 as 14 IEP students share the incredible Capstone research they’ve spent the past year developing. 🌍✨

This is the first cohort to complete the full-year Capstone—IRB approval, journal-ready papers, and all. Come hear their stories, explore their projects, and cheer them on! 📚💬
