Adelphi University / New York

For the second year, Adelphi University's Bhise Global Learning Experience Program took students to India for an immersive ten-day experiential trip. The program consisted of educational tours across India including New Delhi, Goa and Mumbai. Students traveled alongside Adelphi faculty advisors Rakesh Gupta, Chrisann Newransky, and Adelphi alumnus Bharat Bhise, the founder and benefactor of this extraordinary program. From January 10-20, students visited India's local businesses, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), schools and cultural institutions to gain a deeper understanding of the country. They also conducted extensive research during and after the trip, which they presented at Adelphi's Scholarship and Creative Works Conference. The eight Adelphi students chosen to participate in this global experience were: Kelvin Abraham, a senior majoring in nursing Lila Ariste, a senior majoring in biology Joacim Carhed, a senior majoring in management Carolina Chaves, a senior majoring in management Khamkay Inthavong, a senior majoring in management and international studies Alexandra Lee, a senior majoring in criminal justice and sociology Michelle Sarker, a senior majoring in health sciences Anna Varveris, a junior majoring in international relations Learn more about Adelphi's Bhise Global Learning Experience Program.
