Testimonials

It's an Incredible experience! Everyone were extremely welcoming from the first day, from the staff to student ambassadors the program was run exceptionally well and I would like to thank all the individuals who had worked extremely hard to get the program back up and running after COVID-19. Beyond that, the friends and experiences I have gained from this program will stay with me forever!"
Bethany Stevenson, UNUK
I can proudly say that this was the best decision I've made. Exposure to Asia’s Business prospects, interactions with fellow students from around the world, lecturers and a wholesome learning journey. Particularly campus life, management, and helpful ambassadors is what makes me look back on this journey!
Rubaissa Tabassum, University of Management & Technology, Lahore
My experience at UNM has been life changing! As a first time going abroad, I have learned a lot about myself, and various other countries during the 2 weeks course. The activities that we participated in places we traveled to, have broadened my horizons and increased my self confidence. I have made genuine friends that I am keeping in touch with, because we are a good support system for each other and I intend to see them again soon!

eing a part of the summer school has been the most remarkable experience. The program was so engaging, fun and interactive that I feel I have learnt more in two weeks than I would have learnt one whole semester! A particular highlight of my time was that I was able to meet students from all across the world, broaden my perspectives and learn a few life skills. The international summer school program has undoubtedly had a positive impact on me. I would urge each and every person that comes across this program to not think twice and enroll yourself in it, before it is too late. You'll thank me later!
Nimisha Kapoor, University of Chitkara
Enlightening experience that I’m grateful to have been a part of. Being granted the opportunity to learn about business proceedings in a foreign continent from top-class lecturers, via the Doing Business in Asia module, gave me great insight into the unique workings of businesses in Asia as well as how they differ from those in the west. The true joy lies within experiencing Malaysia.I’ve met so many wonderful people from across the globe and formed many unforgettable memories that I will cherish. Many thanks to the staff and ambassadors for making this event possible!
