Keep Learning, Be Connected, Lead With Compassion





On August 30, students from SKK GSB’s Professional MBA and Business Analytics MBA programs celebrated their achievements at the Summer Graduation Ceremony. Dean Andrew Yi encouraged graduates to continue learning, stay connected, and lead with compassion as they step into the next chapter of their journey.

The ceremony was filled with pride and joy, marking the transition from students to alumni. Congratulations once again to the newest members of our alumni community—we look forward to seeing the impact you will make in the years ahead.

Welcoming Our New Students


Exploring, Connecting, Growing Together





Full-Time MBA






In August, SKK GSB welcomed new cohorts to the Full-Time MBA, Executive MBA, Professional MBA, and Business Analytics MBA programs.

Each program offered a variety of sessions tailored to its curriculum, including academic introductions, career workshops, global immersion, and team-building activities to help students prepare for the journey ahead.

These experiences not only supported academic and professional readiness but also provided meaningful opportunities to build lasting connections with peers, faculty, and alumni.

The orientations marked the beginning of a new chapter, and we look forward to supporting our newest students as they grow into future leaders of the SKK GSB community.
