In Her Orbit: Alumni In Conversation with Dr. Nergis Mavalvala

In Her Orbit: Alumni in Conversation with Dr. Mavalvala: Dr. Nergis Mavalvala trained and built her early career inside a global higher-education system that looked very different from the one that applicants face today. As Dean of MIT’s School of Science, she now sits at the center of the global higher education universe, at a moment when that system is shifting quickly for scholars everywhere, and unevenly for those coming from the Global South. This session places her vantage point alongside the lived experience of Habib alumni navigating the current global higher education terrain, structured as an exchange between practitioners.
