Michael Bryant

Fulbright University of Birmingham Summer Institute - British Cultural Heritage

Michael Bryant is a first-year undergraduate at the University of Michigan studying Economics and International Studies. He currently writes for the Michigan Foreign Policy Council and Michigan Journal of Economics, serves as captain of the Michigan Ethics Bowl team, and works as a campus tour guide. In his free time, you’ll find Michael playing chess, reading history books, and watching Manchester United.

Having never traveled outside North America, Michael is beyond excited to participate in the University of Birmingham’s British Cultural Heritage Program this summer. He looks forward to exploring historical sites across the UK and taking classes at the university. He is also excited to explore Birmingham with fellow summer institute and full-time students. Michael has never studied in a big city and can’t wait to see all of the amazing things Birmingham has to offer. Through his experience in the program, Michael aims to become a more thoughtful and globally-engaged thinker.
