YI Mi Linh (Russia 2018 IMBA Full-Time)
Having a technical, professional financial background, I was looking for something which would help me in my career transition. Another reason why I chose the Tongji IMBA program was to become a better leader. After doing my own research on several business schools, I decided that Tongji IMBA was the right choice for me: top-class professors with good balance between theoretical knowledge and practical experience. The program is highly demanding in terms of time dedication but rewarding in terms of knowledge and development of critical thinking. Other valuable aspect of the program are the fellow students, whose diversity in terms of experience and challenging discussions enrich the learning experience. If you commit yourself to learning and obtaining an opportunity, then this program is a great choice and will help you achieve your goals.
