Twelve doctoral students take the global stage! 🌏 The Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics proudly provides students with experiential learning opportunities and enhances their global visibility. #VTagecon #ResearchWithImpact 🔗news.vt.edu/articles/2024/…

Teaching Macro Principles this spring, and every time a student calls me 'Professor' or 'Dr.,' I feel like I'm starring in an academic sitcom. Who gave me this much responsibility?! 😂 I have to remind myself not to laugh but only call it character-building.

A BIG CONGRATS TO LEO! We are so #VTagecon proud of you and your accomplishments. Well deserved!!!!

I’m excited and relieved to have successfully defended my PhD dissertation. It’s been a long journey of hard work, late nights, and continuous learning. I couldn’t have made it here without the support of my committee, mentors, friends, family, and department during this stint.

We are so happy for you and all the hard work! Congrats!
