Weekend MBA (Executive)
The networking opportunities provided by The British College were invaluable. Even my classmates were all experts in their own field. In addition, the guest speakers from various industry backgrounds and expertise allowed us to gain insights directly from practice. Moreover, I had an incredible experience participating in a week-long student exchange program at Prince of Shongkla University in Thailand. From participating in an international research symposium to meeting the local industry, and interacting with local students and professors, the experience added great value to my academic journey.
