Completing my MBA at the Universiti Malaya has been a truly transformative journey. Shortly after graduation, I secured a new role in a new company — a testament to the personal and professional growth the program has nurtured. The rigorous program in UM MBA has helped me uncover abilities I never realized I had, pushing me to achieve goals, collaborate effectively with fellow postgraduates, and expand my professional network.

Working in pharmaceutical marketing, one key takeaway from the MBA is the importance of positioning and seeing branding from a broader, strategic perspective. The course on sustainable entrepreneurship by Dr Irene Yong has particularly inspired me — proving that balancing ESG sustainability with business profitability is achievable.

While an MBA does not guarantee immediate success, the knowledge and network gained have undoubtedly broadened my horizon and strengthened my career direction. UM MBA strikes the perfect balance between world-class quality (double crown accreditation) and affordability.
