In an increasingly globalized business environment, having an understanding of business in Asia is a critical outcome of any MBA program. The faculty at the Nanyang Business School is knowledgeable about their areas of expertise. The Global Business Environment course in particular was very interesting and provided a good Asian perspective. Academics aside, the program also enabled me to expand my network by getting to know students from NTU and other top business schools from around the world.

Singapore is home to many great companies as well as significant economic activity, making it an excellent setting for learning business. It offers cultural opportunities locally and is centrally located for anyone wanting to travel around Asia. I brought my newborn to Singapore with me and was especially pleased with how clean and modern the city is. The exchange program was a very enriching experience for me and I highly recommend this program to all MBA students interested in study abroad.
