Programme: BA in Business Management

Overview

I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management. I always have had an inclination towards business since high school and have strongly believed in the practical side to education. I have had numerous opportunities to implement the theory that I learn into practicality. Be it my 3-year stint as a Vice President at AIESEC or my current role as Vice President of Student Council. SolBridge has offered me many opportunities to learn practically, which is just what I want. Post-MBA, I intend to eventually start my own business. But before that, I would like to gain some valuable experience in the field of Strategic Consulting. There are a lot of companies in Seoul that are of interest to me. I am confident of Ianding a job in one of them
