The "Global MIM Incoming Student Orientation" (hereinafter the orientation), jointly operated by Korea University Business School (Dean=Sangyong Kim) and CEMS, took place on February 29th at the LG POSCO Building's Cuckoo Hall on the 6th floor and Hyundai Motorstudio Goyang.
The CEMS Global Alliance in Management Education, a consortium of the world's elite business schools with a 35-year tradition, includes only one business school from each country, which is recognized as the best, and involves 33 universities worldwide. Since acquiring full membership status in 2015, Korea University's Business School has been the sole CEMS member institution in South Korea.
Students attending the orientation were welcomed with opening remarks by Global MIM Program Academic Director Tony C. Garrett, a welcome speech by Dean Sangyong Kim, a campus tour with KUBE, the Business School's student ambassador, and an introduction to the program and administrative details. Dean Kim expressed his welcome to students participating in the Global MIM program, highlighting, “Since introducing the country's first MBA program in 1963, Korea University Business School has been leading management education in Korea.” He also noted, "The Global MIM program allows students to grasp global economic and management trends at a glance and tailor the curriculum to their preferences," encouraging students to leverage Korea University's strong alumni network and enjoy various aspects of Korean culture, such as K-pop and K-dramas.
The day concluded with an English tour at Hyundai Motorstudio Goyang, one of the global companies participating in CEMS.
