Key Considerations for Choosing a Concentration as an International Student

In this episode, we are joined by Dean Peggy Chang, Associate Dean for Curricular Engagement, to discuss something that is crucial to all students at Brown: choosing your concentration. Whether you’re just starting to explore, or have already taken many classes, we will cover how to take advantage of the open curriculum, where to go for advice (while learning how to also listen to your inside voice), and what to do when it all feels too overwhelming.Dean Chang, is also the lead director of the Independent Concentration program and the director of the Curricular Resource Center, a peer-to-peer advising space on Angel Street where you can find academic coaches and a variety of advising programs.
