My majors in University were design and visual arts but most of my career is business relating positions such as marketer and manager. Having 7 years of manager career while the last 15 years of entire period of work brought me an attention to obtain a qualification in the business field so I enrolled the diploma of business administration at TAFE NSW in Australia. However the program at TAFE was focused on practical units which I mostly had done from my work places.
Then I wanted to move on to the next level position in international education industry it requires a minimum degree related in business or marketing together with professional work experience. I applied couple of positions in big organisations but I was not successful and I was suggested to obtain a qualification.
In the meantime, the international education industry is very much related to Chinese market as Chinese number out-bounding from China is the biggest in the world. So I started researching MBA course taught in English in China which means I will be eligible to gain a qualification as well as the Chinese language at the same time.
Jiangsu University offers 2 years MBA and it is taught in English so this matches to my plan and the location is very important for me to study. I prefer to study in a regional area rather than a major city such as Shanghai or Beijing and it is not too far from Shanghai so it might be convenient to travel to Australia to visit my family during breaks.
I contacted other Universities who offers 2 years MBA in English but I was welcomed most by Jiangsu University. The staff who assisted me via email was friendly which is one of the important facts for me to choose somewhere to study.
