Message from the Dean of SGS, on the common spirit of the school and its programs:

“At the aggregate level, The School of Global Studies has been at the forefront of various issues, whether globalization, innovation, or entrepreneurship. Those are the essential concepts and segues where we try to bridge and connect between theory and practice—to integrate actual events into our understanding and our theory of social sciences.

As a specialized entity in the SEA region, we have been trying to make the vital connection between globalization and localization. The focus is to substantiate what it means to have these experiences while extending them to the global framework. For innovation and entrepreneurship, our mission is to expand the base at the private sector level, and bring entrepreneurship to the policy level, civil society level, and the public spheres.

For this reason, it is the crucial element that we always encourage and support our students at SGS to embrace and practice. Expectantly, with that type of knowledge set, students can focus more on the issues that are relevant within their theses, study, and personal endeavors.”
