Francisco Fernandez
Accounting Major, Political Science Minor
Studied abroad Fall 2023 at UAB in Barcelona
Studying abroad in Barcelona was an incredible experience that allowed me to explore more of the culture in my family’s Spanish side. I am fluent in Spanish already, but being abroad also gave me a newfound confidence in my language skills. While abroad, I took a Spanish history course, two political science courses and a class on graffiti. All of them gave me some taste of culture as they involved a lot of history and international perspectives.
Professionally I am on track to work with PwC post graduation as an accounting associate. However prior to that I am intending to complete a labor studies masters degree at UMass. To supplement that degree, I am also working on my Honors Thesis currently with the labor studies department.
