For many of you, the journey to a foreign country to study is the first time you are living independently and away from the comfort of family and friends. The experience provides an opportunity for you to discover yourself while gaining an understanding of a different culture. Being in a new place can be overwhelming at times, and it tests one's ability to adapt to diverse situations while being able to problem solve.
Global schools become hubs for global talent - be it students or professors. Professors, regardless of area of study, expose you to innovation, models, case studies and problem statements from across the planet. As the world becomes increasingly flat, you are taught to be aware of the progress and issues facing industry and strategize on the most effective course of action.
Extracurricular activities form a vital part of
your college experience. During your time on campus you engage in debate,
clubs, competitions, talks and activities which equal in learning, if not more,
to what you gain inside the classroom. After graduation, these habits continue
where you involve yourself in your community, find time and pursue activities
in addition to your home and work commitments.
