Enriching global leadership programme
WITH the rise of globalisation and internationalisation as a worldwide phenomenon, it is vital for students to expand their worldview, to be taken out of their comfort zone and seek opportunities to appreciate other cultures.
As an effort in continuing its global leadership initiative, Management and Science University (MSU) recently sent a group of students for a six-day and five-night trip to South Korea.
The group comprised 16 students from the Bachelor in Education (TESL), Bachelor in Early Childhood Education and Bachelor in Counselling and Guidance programmes.
Nurturing global mindset
MSU’s Global Leadership Programme (GLP) channels yet another effort by the university to nurture the global mindset necessary for 21st century leadership.
Extensive international exposure and intensive industrial training add to competency enrichment of MSU students, scoring the university a high 98.6% in graduate employability.
The GLP is one of MSU’s internationalisation efforts in ensuring global exposure among its students.
Leadership skills
Focused on creating leaders of tomorrow and developing a global mindset among students, the programme provides opportunities for them to enhance their learning experience and develop leadership and global skills.
These skills will be applied to their learning, volunteering and participation in activities conducted at the international or local level. Throughout the trip to Seoul, the group of students visited Ewha Womans University, Sorak National Park, Namsan Hanok Village and several other tourist attractions.
Among the other activities organised include a visit to the Namsan International Kindergarten, which is an independent early years school that receives educational consulting from the Seoul Foreign School.
As one of Malaysia’s top universities, MSU gives priority to quality education and the importance of creative teaching methodologies towards producing quality graduates.
Personal enrichment
Apart from incorporating international exposure in the student learning experience, extensive industrial training components and personal enrichment competency are also blended into the programme of study to ensure the graduates’ employability.
MSU’s award-winning homegrown programmes are among the best in the region.
They are meticulously crafted to enhance the graduates’ potential and meet the stringent standards set by both local and international bodies.
The university aspires to provide education that will enhance the employability of its graduates and at the same time, enrich the students’ learning experience with ethical and moral values.
