SKK GSB is constantly updating its curriculum and courses to reflect the latest trends in business. Recently, it has added new courses on "Business and Generative AI (AI) Utilization" and "Deep Learning for Business" to its full-time MBA program. These courses will teach students the fundamentals of AI, such as semantic search and image generation, as well as how to apply deep learning to real-world business problems, such as recommendation systems and natural language processing. "AI is both a threat to existing business practices and an opportunity to create unimagined new ones," said Eric Chui, dean of SKK GSB. "AI and business analytics are a natural fit with SKK GSB's mission and vision. We will continue to reimagine and redefine MBA education in Korea." SKK GSB offers a total of six MBA programs: Full-time MBA (1.5 years, daytime), Professional MBA (2 years, evening), Indiana University Kelley-SKK GSB EMBA (1.5 years, weekend), Business Analytics MBA (2 years, Saturday), and AI MBA (2 years, Saturday). All courses except the AI MBA are conducted 100% in English. The Full-time MBA is a representative global MBA program with over 50% international students and 60% international faculty. With the addition of the AI and business analytics tracks, students can also prepare for the future business environment. The program has dual degree tracks with Indiana University's Kelley School of Business and EDHEC Business School in France. Through the 'Dual Degree Fellowship' created last year, outstanding students can receive full domestic tuition to pursue an MBA degree from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University. Graduates of the Full-time MBA program have gone on to achieve remarkable success. They have started new careers at leading domestic and foreign companies such as POSCO, McKinsey & Company, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and IBM. SKK GSB is also continuously strengthening its career development programs. It provides personalized career coaching and a variety of programs for students from the moment they enter the program, as well as career services from foreign experts. The Professional MBA, designed for working professionals who find it difficult to attend the Full-time MBA, is also a popular program. Students can develop their business expertise and global capabilities by taking MBA classes two to three times a week after work. After developing basic skills in their field for one year, they can choose a specific field such as marketing or finance to specialize in. The program offers two dual degree tracks: an MBA program at Indiana University's Kelley School in the US and an online Master of Science (MS) in Management program. Many students participate in the dual degree track. The Kelley-SKK GSB EMBA is a joint program between Sungkyunkwan University and Indiana University. Kelley School faculty teach the courses, and graduates receive both schools' MBAs. The Business Analytics MBA program covers business data analysis knowledge and skills from the basics to application. SKK GSB is currently accepting applications for new students in 2024 for each program. You can apply for admission information on the SKK GSB website.

Professor Suil Pae wins the 54th Maekyung Economist Award
Professor Pae of SKK GSB Selected as the 54th Maeil Business Newspaper Economist Award Winner. Professor Pae published a paper titled "Career Concerns, Investment, and Management Forecasts" in the world-renowned academic journal "Accounting Review". In this paper, Professor Pae used a mathematical model to analyze how corporate investment and disclosure differ depending on the characteristics of managers. This attracted attention from the academic community and led to the award-winning achievement. According to Professor Pae's analysis, managers with general management skills tend to underinvest, while managers with specialized skills tend to overinvest. In addition, managers with general management skills were less likely to disclose earnings forecast information than managers with specialized skills, especially when their contribution to corporate value was uncertain. Professor Pae's paper attracted attention by focusing on the theoretical verification of the factors that many companies consider when selecting professional managers. The paper revealed that when professional and general management tendencies are taken to extremes, companies make inefficient investment decisions and damage corporate value. Overinvestment is a problem, but underinvestment also prevents quick responses when plant expansion or new construction is necessary, putting companies at a disadvantage in competition.
