At our institution, we recognise the importance of bridging the gap between academia and industry. Throughout the programme, students have ample opportunities to engage with industry professionals through guest lectures, industry projects, internships, and networking events. These experiential learning opportunities not only enhance students’ understanding of business concepts but also provide valuable insights into current industry practices and trends. Students also have the chance to participate in study abroad programmes and international exchanges, gaining a global perspective on business management and expanding their professional networks.
