ABAIBM graduate (2023); Articulated to BBA in Risk and Insurance Management in Lingnan University, (2023)

"The courses I took in the International Business Management programme at UOW College Hong Kong helped me develop a broad global business perspective. For example, through courses such as International Business, Economic Integration, and Asian Trade Policies, I gained an understanding of how to analyze and address various challenges that arise in the international business environment. In the final semester, the Global Business Project course required us to apply our knowledge to critically analyze a specific business strategy of a renowned multinational company, which laid a solid foundation for developing my business analysis skills.

Furthermore, the school's seminars on further education and job interviews provided valuable insights for planning our future paths, helping us have a clearer plan for our career or further studies."

 "在伍倫貢學院修讀的國際商務管理課程幫助我培養了廣闊的全球商業視野。例如通過學習國際商務、經濟一體化和亞洲貿易政策等課程讓我瞭解了如何分析並且應對國際商業環境中出現的各種挑戰。並且最後一學期的全球商業項目的課程要求我們將所學運用到詳細分析知名跨國企業的某一商業策略，這為我培養商業分析的思維奠定了良好基礎。

此外，學校舉辦的升學和面試講座也為我們對規劃未來的去向提供了重要的參考價值，幫助我們對自己的就業或升學有著更加清晰的規劃。"
