UConn Political Science Department graduate Julian Cote-Dorado ’24 (CLAS) has been named to the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange (CBYX). 👏 The fellowship provides American and German young professionals the opportunity to spend one year in each other’s countries, studying, interning, and living with hosts as part of a cultural immersion program. https://today.uconn.edu/2025/06/recent-graduate-named-to-congress-bundestag-youth-exchange/
