Dashne Abdulkareem Abdulghafour, Business ‘14
Dashne Abdulkareem graduated from American University of Iraq, Sulaimani (AUIS) with a bachelors in Business Administration in 2014. She is currently a Fulbright Scholar pursuing an MBA at Portland State University’s School of Business in Portland, Oregon in the United States.
“The quality of education at AUIS helped me find different opportunities in my academic journey,” Dashne said. She credits the liberal arts education offered at AUIS for broadening her perspective on her personal and professional life.
“[Studying at AUIS] helped me learn how to identify alternatives and solutions to any obstacles that I may face,” she added. “And learning amongst diverse groups of students at AUIS allowed me to better understand different viewpoints and come up with approaches to different goals.”
For Dashne, the AUIS journey hasn’t ended. “From the start, in our English lectures, to our other many courses and programs, AUIS equipped me with the tools to head out into the world and achieve my goals, one after the other.”
