Peer Advisor
My name is Gideon, and I am majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I studied abroad Fall 2025 at University College Dublin in Ireland. While I was abroad, I got to try countless new activities, explore places I had never been, meet tons of new friends, and learn about the history of other cultures. I am so glad I got to study abroad, and I can't wait to give others the same opportunities I had!
