"I chose the Stanford ICE/IEAPA program for its small size, supportive faculty, and rigorous monograph requirements. The program served me well: I have been working for the past six years as an education researcher at the Center for Technology in Learning at SRI International, focusing on evaluation of programs that range from major school reform efforts, to courses training teachers to use technology in innovative ways in the classroom, to afterschool programs working to incorporate science and math learning. I've had opportunities through my job to travel to Brazil, China, Mexico, and Costa Rica. There is no doubt in my mind that I got my job thanks to the skills I learned and connections I made at Stanford. Having the opportunity to develop an original research project, take classes with excellent faculty, participate in the Comparative International Education Society's yearly conference, and get to know my ICE peers and ICE alumni were all highlights of the program. The program's structure ensured that I had marketable skills by the end of year, while also allowing me the freedom to take courses that interested me."
