In recent years, the world has undergone significant changes, largely due to global events with profound impact such as the COVID-19 pandemic, intensifying geopolitical competition between the US and China, and ongoing conflict in Ukraine. As a result, there has been a growing recognition of importance of understanding the intricate interactions between nations, businesses, and individuals across borders. At our department, we strive to provide a comprehensive education in global business that equips our graduates with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in today's rapidly changing world. Our goal is to nurture our graduates and prepare them to become successful international business professionals and global civil servants who can make a positive impact on the world. Let us work together towards building a brighter future.
