LE PHAM, Thuy Ly

I was born and raised in Hanoi, which is the capital city of Vietnam. It is a place where traditional culture blends beautifully with modern development, and it is brimming with stunning scenery and delicious cuisine that will transport you to a world of harmony and happiness.

I chose the Global Management program at Chuo University because the name itself immediately attracted me. It represents the idea of becoming not only a manager, but also an international leader in today’s interconnected world. I was also drawn to its English-based program, where courses are conducted in both English and Japanese. I find it exciting to learn multiple languages and gain global perspectives at the same time.

What I find most interesting at GLOMAC is the truly global learning environment. Being surrounded by students from diverse cultural backgrounds has broadened my mindset and helped me become more open-minded. In addition, the wide variety of courses allows me to explore different fields such as finance, law, and marketing, which helps me discover my interests and develop the skills I want to deepen in the future.

I think the main challenges for international students are adapting to a new culture and dealing with homesickness, especially at the beginning. However, students can always receive warm support from staff and professors, and as time passes, they are able to make lifelong friends who are also international students going through similar experiences at GLOMAC.

Visionary, Inclusive, Enlightening

In the coming years at university, I plan to gain more practical experience through internships, especially in Japanese companies. I am especially interested in learning more about the field of human resource management and understanding economics from a global perspective through my studies at GLOMAC, as this will support my future career path.

Be confident and open to stepping out of your comfort zone. GLOMAC is a great choice, full of opportunities for growth. Be ready to embrace the diversity and make new friends to fully enjoy your journey!
