We know that there are many benefits to studying abroad and we encourage students to use their skills from these experiences when interviewing for jobs. The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology published a recent study showing that living abroad actually does enhance creativity. Conducted by researchers at INSEAD and Northwestern University, the study included nationals from several countries. This short interview of William Maddux, one of the lead researchers in the study, provides a concise summary of the findings and methodology.

I will be attending the NAFSA: Association of International Educators Bi-regional Conference (regions X & XI) in Springfield, MA from November 2nd – 5th. I will be co-presenting in a pre-conference workshop entitled “Fundamentals of Short Term Education Abroad Programming” on November 3rd.
There is still time to register for this conference. The bi-regionals are always an added bonus, as colleagues from both regions representing NY, NJ, CT, MA, VT, NH, ME and RI will be in attendance, sharing a wealth of knowledge and creativity.
Please look me up if you attend!
