After spending one semester as an exchange student at Fudan University the spring fo 2015, I knew that I wanted to return to Shanghai and China. As those months were some of the best and most educational months in my life, I felt that there was a lot more to learn from the city and country about business and culture.

After doing a course at Fudan called "Foreign Business Investment" I gained a lot of interest in international business and especially doing business in China. Before traveling to China I was very unsure of which path to chose for a masters degree and therefore I was very open to suggestions. Through friends in Shanghai I heard about SJTU and the master of International Business. From current students I heard a lot of positive things about the program and SJTU. Therefore I started researching this program and found it amazingly interesting. Since I first started researching this program I have gained a lot more interest in International Business, and I can now see myself in the future with a career within this field. I really wish to become admitted to this program and I really think I will make a positive contribution to the class and the university.
