Mary Fischer-Gobble

Nationality: American
Degree: MA International Relations, May 2001 

From the moment I arrived at the campus, to my first encounter with the then Director Grant Chapman, I knew that this experience was going to be very rewarding. I had a sense that the faculty and staff were going to be very instrumental and involved in my learning experience. I originally was only scheduled to spend one semester in London, but within two weeks of being there, I decided to graduate from Webster’s London campus.

While in London, I had the opportunity to do a very high profile internship working with Lord Toby Harris in The House of Commons. This was one of the most intriguing and interesting internships I had ever done. I was afforded an opportunity to work with the inner circles of the Local London Authority and experience and learn about the higher level of the British Government. I benefited most from the learning environment fostered by both teachers and their students. I have always felt that it is important for students to step out of their comfort zone and experience learning in a different cultural setting. This is what I think happens at the Webster Graduate School. Many of the professors are international, thus a different prospective is brought into the classroom. In addition, the students come from a wide range of regions throughout the world. In the development of my education and career plans, I believe that studying abroad was extremely beneficial to my progress.
