GRO is organized in three units: Government Relations and Public Policy, University Relations, and Stakeholder Engagement and Strategic Initiatives. Our goal is to ensure that governments recognize, enable, and publicly articulate the unique role played by the University of Toronto in civic, provincial, and national capacity-building.
International Students: Life After Graduation
This documentary short follows six international students as they pursue their work and passions in the years after graduating from the University of Toronto. The individual stories weave together to show the common experiences, including challenges and triumphs, of stepping into the world after university.

With special thanks to Cal Campos, Videographer, Director and Producer, and funded in part by the International Student Experience Fund.
