The Doctor of Business Administration programme was invigorating. The faculty members are knowledgeable and insightful, and the exchanges and debates that I had with my fellow coursemates were stimulating! The programme has shaped how I look at the industry that I am in, and what I can do about the challenges it faces. Though the programme was challenging, especially when I had to juggle between my full-time work and the programme, I have no regrets in embarking on this doctoral journey at SMU.
