Eyes on Ireland: Gilman Scholar Diaries

The Gilman Scholarship

The U.S. Department of State’s Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program (Gilman Program) enables American students to gain proficiency in diverse languages and cultures, skills that are critically important to their academic and career development. The Institute of International Education has administered the program since its inception in 2001.

The Gilman Program was fundamental in my ability to visit Ireland. Not only did the scholarship assist in funding the costs of studying abroad, it granted me with resources and tools to navigate a new country with confidence.
