Orientation for Spring 2017 Foreign Exchange Students
University Orientation for Spring 2018 foreign exchange students took place on February 27, 4pm at Ahn Young Il Hall, LG-POSCO Building. The participants were KUBS Associate Dean Jae-Nam Lee and 90 exchange students from overseas universities.
The Orientation started with a social event where inbound exchange students got together with outbound students (63 undergraduate business students), prior to the start of their exchange program. The event was designed to ensure students from diverse cultural backgrounds share their stories or tips for living overseas. Associate Dean Jae-Nam Lee welcomed incoming students that “Exchange program is a great opportunity to meet and network with students from overseas institutions. I would strongly suggest you to make the most of your exchange experience. Please do participate in social events, I am sure it will improve your personal and professional development.”
The Orientation program introduced participants to life at Korea University in general. The KUBS International Office delivered students that “KUBS is the highest ranked Business School in South Korea. Our next goal is to establish and build a foundation for our students to be active members of society – and global CEOs.” Ekaterina Melnichuk (University of Economics, Prague), President of Exchange Student Association added that “We are from different parts of the world, and yet, perhaps we can all agree with what we want to achieve. As long as we never stop trying to stay out of our comfort zone, and not to be afraid of trying new things – new language and culture, I believe we will be able to reach where we want to be.”
KUBS invited 90 exchange students on Spring 2018, including △ 70 undergraduate △ 13 postgraduate and △ 7 MBA students. The participants are from 42 universities in 18 countries, including 20 students from Singapore, 17 from France and 13 from the USA.
