NCTU GMBA 交通大學 企業管理碩士學位學程

Written by: Dwe, Class of 2018

I am SI WE DWE from a country named a golden land, Myanmar. It is such a great opportunity to be a GMBA student at National Chiao Tung University (NCTU), Taiwan. Before I have come across about this university, I had the opportunity to work for different organizations and I have earned industry-working experiences in Singapore and in a few countries for several years. However, I had a dream to become an entrepreneur who would also become someone who can help and lead the employees to fulfill their desired dream.  So, in order to be able to become what I wanted to be, I realized that I also needed to learn more business management skills to be able to manage the business well. Then, I started looking for MBA program to learn the business knowledge to be able to carve my ambition come true. 

Fortunately, I was offered a generous scholarship by NCTU. In the very beginning, I was really worried to become a student again as I had been working for so many years and I felt that I was not ready to go back to study. However, surprisingly, I have been doing quite well and having a perfect student life now. I am very much satisfied as I am getting not only business knowledge but also learning in Chinese language which is spoken in so many countries today. I feel that this is a great opportunity for me to have such a great student life again. 

I found that there are many international students in the program and exchange students from all over the world because NCTU is one of the best universities in Taiwan. I have come across people from all over the world that I have never expected before. This is really exceeding my expectation. I am expanding my network across the globe at NCTU, as networking is essential today especially, someone like me who wanted to become a successful businessman. 

I realized that the life of a student is not only just to study but it also means to me many things. I am really enjoying at NCTU as NCTU has opened up my mind and offered me a lot of opportunities to have a great exposure to the real business world. I believe that I would be ready to start up my own business with the theoretical knowledge, analytical skills and the international experience I gained from NCTU along with my previous industry experience. I hope I would become a successful businessman in very near future and I am very much looking forward to it.
