This group of students will be working in countries across the globe including Bangladesh, Belgium, Ecuador, England, Ethiopia, France, Guatemala, Italy, Nicaragua, Rwanda and the United States.

Sixteen students were chosen for the research category: Eric Alt, Jan Anderson, Tanya Arora, Jean Paul Destarac, Brittney Dickey, Roza Essaw, Taylor Johnson, Andrew Lin, Katharina Marino, Kathleen Masterson, Austin McBride, Justice Pirkey, Basma Raza, Jacqueline Ross, Dung Michael Tran and Katie Ye.

Twelve students were chosen for the civil engagement category: Aden Abiye, Juan Castillo, Drake Frank, Katie Jones, Jonathan Machemehl, Kimberly Mendoza, Pamela Nickell, Richard Nixon, Mayra Pratz, Rachel Stonecipher, Ashley Wali and Miller Walker.
