Bayasgalan Gankhuu

Home Country: Mongolia
GW School / Program: GWSB, MS in Project Management

Bayasgalan is a graduate student from Mongolia, currently pursuing a Master’s in Project Management. After completing her undergraduate studies in International Relations, she gained hands-on experience in project coordination through roles at the Mongolian National Commission for UNESCO and several construction projects in Mongolia. These opportunities inspired her to build her project management skills and led her to seek a further degree in this field.

As an international student, she understands the challenges of living far from loved ones and adapting to a new country and culture. In her role as an ISCA, she hopes to support fellow international students by offering guidance, encouragement, and a listening ear. 

Outside her studies, Bayasgalan enjoys watching a wide range of films, from suspenseful thrillers to heartfelt romances. Since moving to Washington D.C., she has found peace in walking around the National Mall whenever she has time, using those moments to relax and appreciate her surroundings.
