What began as a daunting transition soon became an unforgettable chapter, thanks to the welcoming faculty and friendships that I developed during my time there that made leaving so difficult\u2014my favorite kind of goodbye.<\/p>\n<p>I am immensely grateful to the Department of Communication and Media Studies for granting me this invaluable opportunity and for recognizing my dedication with the York International Award.

This award represents the passion that I have for learning about media policy, which is an area of interest for me in my academic and professional career. The course that this award is linked to has not only strengthened me as a student but also as a future communication and media professional as it granted me the chance to observe and analyze the roles and impacts that politics and policy has within the media.
