RIT Work Abroad

The picture was taken at The Belvedere in Vienna

This is my first time in Europe and I won't lie it was incredibly overwhelming at first. From different languages to different mannerisms to stores being closed on Sundays, moving to Vienna has been a huge adjustment for me. I am taking my time getting to know this beautiful city and taking complete advantage of my time in Europe. There is so much history and culture here - it's truly eye-opening and humbling. At the half-way point in my journey, I find myself extremely grateful for this international opportunity; not only am I gaining great technical knowledge during my co-op, but I am gaining invaluable personal experiences that are helping me learn and grow. is a 4th year Mechanical Engineering student

“Cuenca, Ecuador is a beautiful city. It contains Colonial Spanish architecture. Cuenca is in the middle of the Andes mountains: I was absolutely mesmerized by the view! Everyone is so friendly there, as it is part of a collectivist culture. The food and atmosphere are incredible! I hope to return someday!” from ) Faiza took part in RIT summer fellowship in May 2018 @ Rochester, New York
