Studying for my iMBA at ZIBS has been an incredible highlight in my life.

Obinna UBUNAMA, Nigeria

My iMBA experience at ZIBS was profoundly enriching, thanks to a blend of a rigorous curriculum, collaborative group projects, and hands-on applications. This program honed my teamwork and leadership skills as I navigated complex challenges, delving into subjects like leadership and organizational behavior and operations management. Engaging directly with business professionals via case studies and lectures deepened my practical understanding of these disciplines.

JIN Guang, China

After years of work in my role, I am keen to expand my career breadth and become a versatile professional with multi-dimensional thinking. I feel fortunate to be able to study at ZIBS, where I cleared up my doubts about life and work. Two years of study under the iMBA program enabled me to understand the very nature of corporate operation and management from a new perspective.

NAM Kyounghoon, Korea

I am working at the National Assembly of South Korea. Through my long experience in public service, I've realized that government's policy failures sometimes occur due to public officials' poor understanding of the private sector and the real economy. So, I wanted to have an opportunity to learn the decision-making system and management methods of private companies by taking the ZIBS iMBA course. Excellent faculty in various backgrounds, creative programs including special lectures held frequently, and great classmates working in big tech companies, financial institutions, and public corporations were able to fully meet my expectations for this course. Moreover, International Campus is an ideal setting for international connection. What I love the most at ZIBS is meeting and having fun conversations with nice and great friends from China and other countries. Another attractive thing is that this course provides foreign students with opportunities to study Chinese. These strengths of ZIBS always remind me that ZIBS is the right place for me.
