Anchida Aungurapibul
LG Electronics, Thailand / Global MBA 2010
With great intention to become a successful business owner in the future, I carefully searched for the
Master’s Degree program that would fulfill my expectation. Then, I found that the curriculums offered
by Global MBA, Korea University, would most suit my strong passion for learning. I chose the classes
based on Marketing Concentration, in order to strengthen my business administration and marketing
communication skills, as well as to expand the knowledge to the international scale. What I feel most
grateful for is the provision of job counseling through KUBS Career, where I found out the recruitment
from LG Electronics. After passing all recruitment process, I finally got accepted and was sent back to
my home country, Bangkok, Thailand, to take the position of Corporate Marketing at LG Electronics Thailand. I hope to continue my success based on the knowledge and expertise derived from KUBS Global
MBA to build a stronger presence in Thailand for LG Electronics as well as to return to Korea in the
near future to contribute my capabilities to the country as a returning gratitude. I can say that the MBA
year at Korea University was truly the best time of my life. Not only that it gave me invaluable business
knowledge and experience, but also new best friends from all over the world and a great number of
unforgettable memories that will last for a life time.it’ll be continued with more interesting chapters.
Firdavs Olimov
UBS Securities, Equity Research, Uzbekistan / Global MBA 2009
Before I joined the program, I had a dream of becoming Investment Analyst and KUBS MBA program
helped me achieve my dream through world-class education by offering opportunities globally. KUBS
MBA program is challenging but rewarding. Team projects, papers, exams, etc. made me study all over
night everyday but in exchange for that, I could acquire skills on how to approach and analyze business
cases in international arena. During class discussions, it was very valuable to listen to the points of
engineers from Korea, accountants from Thailand, doctors from Russia and some other students from
different countries with different educational and career backgrounds. Professors are very strong in
their areas of studies and stay updated regarding the changes in international business. KUBS MBA
alumni are working at multinational firms all over the world. I am very grateful to the professors, other
staffs and students of KUBS.

CJ Cheil Jedang Corp, Overseas Business Planning Team, Vietnam / Global MBA 2008
To be a student of Global MBA program of KUBS was really tough and challenging. The program’s useful
and realistic contents provided us with advanced and professional knowledge. As time went by, I also
started my plan for future career : looking for a job in Korea. Thanks to the advice of CDC and professors,
I got to know how to narrow down my job searching process to be more effective and particular; not
only just find job vacancies but apply as normally we do. And things went as I had planned smoothly.
Right after my graduation at KUBS, I started working for Global Sales and Marketing Team of CJ Cheil
Jedang. It is so meaningful to me to look back to recognize that I did not waste any minute at all : Got a
MBA degree and started my career in only more than 1 year. However, this story won’t be stopped here,
it’ll be continued with more interesting chapters.
