Out of my comfort zone

Studying abroad at KFUPM in Saudi Arabia was a transformative experience. The coursework was rigorous and pushed me to grow academically and professionally. I had the chance to explore a new culture, try incredible local foods, and travel across the region—from Egypt to Oman. One of the highlights was engaging with Aramco, where I got firsthand exposure to the global energy industry. The experience broadened my perspective, challenged me in new ways, and gave me lasting connections in one of the world’s most important energy hubs.
