Michaela Cooper

Minor in European Studies

2027

Michaela Cooper is a third-year student from St. Louis, Missouri, pursuing a BBA in strategic management with minors in European studies and real estate. To Michaela, minoring in European studies offers the chance to better understand different cultures, ways of life, and the challenges people face across the world. As part of this minor, she received a Research Grant for Winter 2024 and traveled to Madrid, Spain, to study the ongoing housing crisis. Her project, Stripped of Four Walls, Stripped of Dignity, focused on how local residents are being displaced from their homes and the lack of intervention from the government to address the issue. Michaela is deeply passionate about affordable housing and has thoroughly valued the opportunities and courses that have allowed her to grow and explore these important topics.
