Mia Thiagarajan
Hi! My name is Mia and I am a senior DWA major with a Chemistry minor. Last semester I went to New York to intern at the United Kingdom Mission to the United Nations through Oxy's UN Program, and I'm excited to be your peer tutor for one last semester before I graduate! I've taken all of the DWA intro level classes as well as many 200-level electives, so feel free to stop by if you have questions about international relations theory, analytical essays, or even just the major in general. Outside of the classroom, I am Vice President of Oxy's Asian Pacific Islander Desi American Association and I've also been dancing with Dance Production for four years. I look forward to meeting you all!

Hey, you! I am Peter, a junior international student from Austria. Alongside my major in Diplomacy & World Affairs, I am pursuing a double minor in Comparative Studies in Literature & Culture and Linguistics, while also participating in our school's exchange program with Caltech. My favorite topic in international relations is the Global Political Economy, about which I like to nerd out as a Program Assistant at Oxy's Young Initiative. When I am not being studious, you will find me learning languages, jogging, playing the piano, and running various clubs around campus. I have taken all of the DWA intro-level classes and many 200-level electives, so please talk with me about IR concepts, your readings and writings, the DWA program and resources, as well as any related subjects and interests — or just come chat about school, and life! Whether alone or in groups, I am honored and delighted to meet you!
