Michelle Gragg planned to graduate in May 2024 with a degree in exercise science from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.<\/p>\n

Then she worked in a Vietnamese hospital on a study abroad trip in summer 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cI worked on each floor, and I was in the ICU one day,\u201d she recalled. \u201cI shed some tears because I had to work with the patients, and they were close to death and it was really sad, but it was very much, \u2018This is what I\u2019m meant to do.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I am going to apply to the accelerated nursing program now, or I\u2019m going to see if I can double major and not graduate in May,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

A native of Franklin, Tennessee, Gragg was one of four UTC students who traveled to Vietnam for eight weeks on a trip organized by the Gary W. Rollins College of Business, the Center for Global Education Study Abroad program and the Office for Undergraduate Research and Creative Endeavor (URaCE). While in Vietnam, the students lived in Ho Chi Minh City, formerly known as Hanoi.<\/p>\n

It was the University\u2019s first study abroad trip to Vietnam since 2013, said Dr. Robert Dooley, dean of the College of Business, who has taken more than a dozen trips to Vietnam. He stayed in the country with the UTC students for the first week to help them acclimate.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were brave,\u201d Dooley said.<\/p>\n

While in Vietnam, Gragg worked for a delivery service. Accounting majors Madeline McKissick, who hails from Franklin, Tennessee, and Corrine Finger, a native of Brentwood, Tennessee, worked with a startup finance firm. Isaac Hendren, an accounting and finance major from Chattanooga, worked with a business that provides coconut oil and products made from coconuts grown in Vietnam.<\/p>\n

\u201cI learned a lot about myself and that I\u2019m resilient in a lot of ways,\u201d said McKissick. \u201cI think adaptability was something I really worked on and it was really cool to be able to be working in this country completely different than my own.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m making it my mission to go back to Vietnam after I get my master\u2019s. I want to go there for one or two months and just travel the whole time. I loved it. I really loved it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Hendren had a similar feeling about the trip.<\/p>\n

\u201cVietnam was one of the most amazing experiences in my life and I will never forget it,\u201d the UTC junior said. \u201cI learned better cross-cultural communication and abilities to adapt to cultural differences and still keep in touch with one of the Vietnamese friends I made.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those kinds of experiences are the plan for students on study abroad trips, said Dr. Lisa Piazza, executive director of URaCE.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ultimate goal for many of the study abroad programs that we\u2019re running now is to give students a great bang for their buck,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of these programs are intended to help students develop those career and life skills that are really, really essential to telling their story to future employers, to grad schools, to med schools. That\u2019s the purpose and the goal. That\u2019s our job. To prepare students.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elizabeth Bell, director of International and Specialized Master\u2019s Programs in the College of Business, said international trips give students \u201ca different perspective of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy whole interest in trying to get students to consider study abroad is just to broaden their experience base and to get them outside their comfort zone a little bit,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Gragg said she suffered some jet lag for the first week or so while working from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays, \u201cbut we did it and we learned a lot and they gave us lots of tasks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really glad that I did an internship,\u201d Gragg said. \u201cIt was my first one and I got to experience the work-life environment. I did learn a lot about what I wanted and what I didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think I would\u2019ve ever thought Vietnam would\u2019ve been on my radar to travel to, so being there and seeing how beautiful it is and how amazing a culture it is exceeded all my expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hendren said the company where he worked was more like a family than a business.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had a home-cooked Vietnamese meal every day at the company. It was the CEO\u2019s house and the employees and I also contributed to cooking or cleaning dishes,\u201d Hendren said.<\/p>\n

When asked if any information would be helpful to students who travel to Vietnam in summer 2024, Gragg had an instant response.<\/p>\n

\u201cChopstick lessons.\u201d<\/p>\n
