Chairman's Message

It is a fact that a powerful globalization process drives the contemporary world. We do not yet know to where this process is leading the world. However, there is an emerging consensus that the road to success in contemporary world depends on a balanced integration of local with the global and an appropriate mix of practice with theory.

The fundamental purpose of the university education is to impart a universal sensibility, as well as to develop critical thinking with problem solving abilities. Our goal is to provide these standards without limiting them to a narrow focus with overemphasized specialization. Our students are given the opportunity to select from a wide array of electives. We want our graduates to be versatile enough to tackle the problems of a giant international company as well as the problems of a small local company. Flexibility with universality is our main motto.
