THE EXTRAORDINARY & UNCONVENTIONALMBA CLASS OF 2018

STUDENT PROFILE BOOK

A message from our President and Dean

“...we celebrate diversity and see it as a competitive advantage which, combined

with a rigorous MIT curriculum and Action Learning, will build leaders who will create a

better future in Asia and beyond.”

What sets Asia School of Business apart from other premier MBA schools is the connection between theory and practice. Action Learning is at the core of the unconventional learning experience. The combination of rigorous MIT curriculum taught by some of the best professors in the industry, and the ability to apply these tools and frameworks in real-world situations, provides the formula for building transformative leaders who are market-ready.

Southeast Asia is fast becoming

a major economic force and a driver of global growth. Asia School of Business is capitalizing on the opportunities that exist in these emerging markets and is positioned to turbo-charge the ecosystem by attracting talent and creating leaders who are capable of driving change. We are proud to be working alongside some of the most established corporate names in Southeast Asia as our Action Learning partners. Upon graduation, students will have worked with five different companies across the public, private, and social sectors to address their most important challenges as Southeast Asia grows into a pivotal, integrated regional market.

Our MBA class of 2018 is

comprised of 47 extraordinary and unconventional students who have come from twelve countries across six different continents and brought with them a unique blend of educational focus and work experience. This creates a dynamic environment whereby students also learn from each other during this immersive MBA journey. At Asia School of Business, we celebrate diversity and see it as a competitive advantage, which, combined with a rigorous MIT curriculum and Action Learning, will build leaders who will create a better future throughout Asia and beyond.

- Professor Charles Fine President and Dean, Asia School of Business
