Tell us about your International Experience trip. Where did you go? What was your favorite experience?

Visiting South Korea with Yale SOM was a once in a lifetime experience! Our meeting with Hyundai highlighted the unconventional ways the company is pushing boundaries in electric and autonomous vehicles. Outside of company meetings, we took a KPop dance class, hiked the tallest mountain in Seoul region, sang karaoke, and enjoyed some incredible Korean BBQ.
