Calling UNT Alumni: Join Our Global Career Summit This Fall!

UNT International Affairs, in partnership with the UNT Career Center, is excited to host a Global Career Summit this fall, and we're looking for alumni to participate!

We invite:

✅ International alumni to share your journey at UNT, your experiences with OPT, and the career path you've built since graduation.

✅ Domestic alumni to discuss global opportunities such as Fulbright, JET, study abroad, international internships, or your work with multinational organizations.

We'd love for you to highlight the value of global experiences and intercultural skills in today's workforce. Your story could inspire current students to pursue similar paths!

The Global Career Summit will feature a networking and tabling format, giving students the opportunity to:

- Connect one-on-one with alumni and professionals
- Learn how to internationalize resumes and LinkedIn profiles with career advisors
- Explore global career pathways and international opportunities available through UNT
- Gain insights into navigating an increasingly interconnected workplace

Interested in participating? We'd love to hear from you! Contact us at [email protected]

🌏 Strengthening Global Connections: UNT in the Philippines 🇵🇭

What an amazing and meaningful visit to the Philippines for Dr. Kuruvilla John, who represented the University of North Texas at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines Manila (PUP) in Manila—the largest university in the Philippines.

On July 30, Dr. John delivered a keynote lecture, “Multi-decadal Changes in Environmental Conditions Over Urban Areas of North Texas: An Energy and Environmental Sustainability Perspective,” at PUP’s Bulwagang Balagtas in Sta. Mesa, Manila.

But this visit was about more than sharing research. It was also about building bridges for future collaboration. 🤝

Dr. John represented UNT during a ceremony to recognize the recently signed Memorandum of Understanding between UNT and PUP, creating opportunities for:
🔹 Collaborative research projects
🔹 Faculty mobility and engagement
🔹 Joint academic and research conferences
🔹 Collaborative academic programs
🔹 International academic exchange

The MOU, signed in 2025, provides a framework for turning these opportunities into meaningful partnerships that connect scholars, students, and communities across borders.

We are grateful to Dr. John for representing UNT and helping strengthen our global connections with PUP. Here’s to the exciting collaborations ahead! 🌎💚

“Moving from India to the U.S. by myself was probably the biggest life change I’ve experienced so far. Along with adjusting to college, I suddenly had to figure out “adult life” on my own, finding housing, opening a bank account, getting my driver’s license, learning transportation, and basically becoming independent overnight. It was stressful at times, but it also helped me become much more confident and adaptable.

One funny culture shock for me was realizing how early everything closes here compared to India. Back home, it feels like something is always open and people are always outside, even late at night. When I first came to Denton, I remember going out one evening thinking I’d grab food somewhere, and almost everything was already closed. I genuinely thought the town had some event going on or something because the streets were so quiet.

Recently, one thing that challenged me was balancing school, work responsibilities, and personal life at the same time. Being an international student teaches you how to manage everything independently, and sometimes that balance can be difficult, but I’ve learned a lot about discipline and time management through it.

One accomplishment I’m especially proud of is being selected as an SI Leader for BIOL 1720 at the UNT Learning Center. It felt rewarding because it showed me that my hard work and dedication were being recognized.

Outside of school, one of my favorite places in Denton is Mi Casita. I love going there with friends because the atmosphere is fun, the food is amazing, and after a stressful week, it’s one of those places that genuinely feels comforting and familiar.”
