A variety of topics related to the speaker's summer research experience at the National University of Singapore, as funded by the ACS IREU program, will be discussed. These include travel to Singapore and around Southeast Asia, cultural and academic adjustment to a foreign country, personal growth through cultural exchange, advice for interested undergraduates, and goals for future education and research. The experiences of two other American undergraduates in Singapore, as well as other undergraduates in Europe, will be placed in comparison.
