“Executive MBA that constantly evolves and grows”

In addition to the best curriculum and academic passion, Executive MBA offers unparalleled, strong friendships and networks with alumni. These networks lead to alumni associations where seniors and juniors stay together for life. I think this is the driving force that makes Executive MBA the best. Knowledge and goods have an end, but the network of knowledge and people continues to evolve and grow, so Executive MBA is the choice.

“Speedboat from Good
to Great”

Executive MBA is a gathering of people who have achieved some level of success in their careers. This is a place where you can take a leap to the next level by stimulating and comforting each other, and it is an encouragement and reward to yourself for your hard work at the turning point of your life. I am confident that nowhere else can you get the joy and stimulation you get from talking with people about taking a leap to a higher level together. Now, take on the challenge and invest to leap beyond your good self to greatness. The investment target is Executive MBA.

- Aejin Kim(Real Coaching, Executive MBA 22)
“A place to design the future with new networking”

Expanding your business through relationships that provide real support to each other can only be experienced with Executive MBA. ‘Best in the country’ is what all schools claim when promoting their MBA. I can confidently say that Korea University’s Executive MBA is not just the best as a promotional phrase, but the best in the country in a practical sense, growing together with alumni who can design the future through new networking.

- Soojeong Jeong(Samil PwC, Executive MBA 22)
“Joy and happiness
in a new world”

Memories of planning and preparing a performance in the form of a musical while preparing for a Teacher's Day event with fellow students, and various club activities such as alumni association activities, golf, hiking, wine, and band, are not a monotonous network, but a three-dimensional experience. It has become the driving force behind a vibrant network. Don't hesitate any longer and take the challenge. And achieve. he joy and happiness you feel in this new world will embrace you with all your might.
