EBA has an exceptional reputation in Business Management and Economics. The courses I took provided fundamental and comprehensive grounding in business management. It broadened my perspective and understanding of the global economy. Studying at EBA forged skills I applied as Financial Markets business planning manager at Standard Chartered Bank Thai and director at VD Packing LTD.

It seems surreal that I still recall my first day of undergraduate study after over a decade, but Chulalongkorn University made an impression on me. I had always perceived Chulalongkorn University to be conservative and traditional, but I was pleasantly surprised in many ways during my time there. The impressive mix of area expertise gave me broader perspective than I would have imagined, and it fostered an unconventional mentality in me in my early adult years. And it was to this mentality that I owe whatever successes I have accomplished over the years. With the highly qualified professors, many of whom became my lifelong mentors afterwards, I had received the best education and guidance I could ask for, and one that had set me on a path to even better things later on.

 I was not disappointed. EBA opened many new doors for me, taught me countless skills and knowledge that I would later find very useful further down my career path. With the skill level and knowledge I was provided with, I had no problem securing a job offer even before I completed my courses.

Studying at the EBA introduced me to the world of Economics covering both theoretical and practical aspects. During my time here, the EBA programme did an outstanding job of preparing me to pursue both my academic and business careers through analytical and theoretical skills.

Four years at EBA was a great educational experience that helped prepare me for my graduate study and careers in finance and academia. I learned economic fundamentals and got excellent academic advice from top researchers. I also enjoyed applied and business classes taught by expert practitioners who helped guide me through my first few years in finance. I was lucky to be a part of this program!

Attending EBA is one of the best moves I have made in my life. The emphasis on both theoretical and applied economics and finance has equipped me with the relevant skills that I could apply in industry, and has built a strong foundation for my postgraduate studies. Besides the knowledge gained from lectures, I will always cherish the opportunities given: my exchange in Tilburg, my internship at the Bank of Thailand, and my teaching and research assistant jobs.
Thank you for making my college experience the most valuable time of my life.

My career started at the EBA program. EBA gave me the necessary tools I need to excel at my job. I learned so much from well renowned professors and faculty members. And most importantly, I made great friends that will last a lifetime. I’ll never stop being grateful to EBA for bringing me into a community that fostered my personal, academic and professional growth.

A great president once said “Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.” There are many more talented geniuses, and educated persons than there are successes in the world. “Persistence and determination alone has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”
 
If success comes from knowing how to be persistent and determined, EBA has prepared me well. It has shown me to push through difficult times and to focus on results. It has weathered me with difficult tasks that taught me to continuously manage time and other resources. It has given me a lesson in knowing how to set targets and not let go along the way. EBA has simply provided me with real life examples of how to be successful. The rest is for me to put it to good use myself.

The EBA program has a great reputation for its quality. At EBA, professors are excellent in both teaching and giving advice for students. They can pay close attention to you because EBA has a small class size. It helped me preparing for my graduate study and a career in academia. I enjoyed my 4 years at EBA and I am certain that all students would feel the same.

I stumbled across a quote that goes “You know what's weird? Day by day, nothing seems to change, but pretty soon...everything's different.”. Yes, reflecting back, the EBA program was a contributive factor to my professional ambitions.

It is my belief that the role of the faculty in preparing their students is not to guide them to what they should do, but it is to inform them what the world has for them to pursue – and that is what I believe the EBA program has excelled at. Throughout the program, it had equipped students with the mindset, knowledge, and soft skills with which one would utilize. EBA’s wide range of subjects, varying across departments, and a pool of academic/practitioners have inspired with what the world has to offer, and in turn, what we can offer back. Thus, these are reasons why I believe the program is a valuable lifetime asset.
