Why MIIS?
Robert Fenstermacher, Chief Content Officer with the American Council on Germany, an AFS alumnus and MIIS graduate, shares: 

“My summer in Berlin in 1987 changed my life and led me to a career in international education. The AFS Scholarship at MIIS was critical in helping me pursue my passion. Both AFS-USA and MIIS prepared me to help change the world—and you can too!”
