The allure of studying abroad is the chance to immerse oneself
into the local culture while interacting with a diverse student
body. There are also benefits like increasing employability,
extending business network and raising cultural awareness. Now, the
master and PhD programs in the Institute of International
Management (IIMBA), National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), provide
the opportunity and open for admission until March 30.
The program has attracted not only students from neighboring
countries such as Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia, but now also
France, Italy, Canada and the USA, according to IIMBA Director
Jeng-Chung Chen.
He said, since achieving official accreditation in 2011, the
IIMBA program has continued to grow as a multifaceted, challenging,
progressive program rooted in the vision of Truth and Knowledge,
Integration and Innovation; Growth and Excellence.
For this spring 2015 Batch, 25% of the new students hail from
Europe and have enrolled in the two-year Masters program, he
added.
“What drove them to choose NCKU, as the University to pursue
their Masters degree was different for each student, but each
choice was embedded in the school's national ranking and reputation
as an excellent university in Taiwan,” according to Chen.
Antoine Aubisse, 22, hails from Rimoges, France, graduating with
an undergraduate degree in Business from E.M. Normandie Université.
He said he did some research before deciding on NCKU.
He looked at schools in China and other parts of Taiwan and
chose the IMBA program at NCKU due to its reputation in Taiwan.
“When you say you are at NCKU, people, especially Taiwanese people
always say it’s a really good school,” he said.
Aubisse hopes to stay in Taiwan or Asia and find work that will
allow him to travel, meet with clients and not be in an office all
day.
Julien Cravedi from Vignot, France also chose the IMBA program
because of the reputation of the school. “The university ranking in
Taiwan really matters and I think the degree from NCKU will be very
useful, because I want to stay in Asia and find work.”
Claudia Deponti, is the 2nd Italian student to attend the IMBA
program in its entire history. Deponti said that "NCKU made a good
impression on me during my research.”
