The Kellogg Institute for International Studies, part of the University of Notre Dame’s new Keough School of Global Affairs, is an interdisciplinary community of scholars that promotes research, provides educational opportunities, and builds linkages related to democracy and human development.
Our welcoming intellectual community helps foster relationships among faculty, graduate students, undergraduate students, and visitors that promote scholarly conversation, further research ideas and insights, and build connections that are often sustained beyond Notre Dame.

The week of March 18-22, students of the Kellogg International Scholars Program are invited to meet with four of Kellogg's ISP alumni via virtual Alumni Talks. Below are more details about each session. Kellogg alumni will talk about their careers and share advice with current students. We hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity by signing up to meet with at least one of them.
Schedule and Alumni Attending:
Kellogg International Scholar Stephanie Mulhern Ogorzalek ’11 wrote her senior thesis on gender and witchcraft in colonial Latin America. Fourteen years later, the Buffalo, New York, native is now working as the Director of Global Gender Issues with the White House Gender Policy Council — and sees a direct throughline from her studies at Notre Dame to her job at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
On Friday, Associate Director Holly Rivers hosted a dinner in Boston for area alumni of the International Scholars Program and the International Development Studies minor, both undergraduate programs of the Kellogg Institute for International Studies. Participants enjoyed catching up, learning about new programs at Kellogg, and sharing ideas about networking with current students and other alumni.
Kellogg International Scholar Isabela “Isa” Tasende believes today’s most pressing issues — immigration, violence against women, private business influences — are best understood and addressed from an interdisciplinary perspective.
