Global Tigers

Opportunity for returning students

The Global Tiger Peer Advisory (GTPA)
Returning students are a terrific asset to Auburn and all returning students are invited to join the GTPA. Members of this group mentor students interested in studying abroad and participate in study abroad marketing opportunities across campus. This is a great addition to a student’s resume. Please contact OIE-AUAB about joining this group.

Upon your return, you are automatically a Global Tiger and you will be invited to join the Global Tiger Peer Advisory. Here are some topics the Global Tiger Peer Advisory focuses on:

• Internationalizing Auburn's campus
• Developing a link between International and American students
• Aiding Auburn students who wish to study abroad
• Providing valuable re-entry-to-America advice for returning study abroad students
• Creating a community of world travelers, who enjoy sharing their plans to travel and their experiences while traveling

Career Planning
Many students are eager to use their experience abroad to jump start their career. Below is a list of things you can do to help with your career planning.

• With the help of career center staff, prepare a resume. Make sure it describes the experience abroad and all cross-cultural adaptation skills.
• Attend all relevant job-seekers’ workshops.
• Learn whether firms with offices abroad recruit on campus.

Student Post Program Assessment
Student and program evaluations are available from OIE AUAB or from the program director. Students should complete these forms as soon as possible after the completion of the program.
