Singapore Management University (SMU) Global Summer Programme 8th Edition
2023-01-24 07:13:52
The annual SMU Global Summer Programme (GSP) will return for the 8th edition from 26 June to 21 July 2023 (4 weeks).
GSP 2023 consists of two tracks: Asian Insights and Sustainable Futures (NEW), with 13 courses specially designed to empower your students with the necessary knowledge and skills from these emerging disciplines.
Why are Asian insights and Sustainable Futures important to students?
• Asian Insights
- According to McKinsey & Company, "Asia has the potential to fuel and shape the next phase of globalisation".
- By 2040, when your students are in the workforce, Asia will account for about 52% of global GDP in terms of purchasing power parity, which means Asia represents abundant opportunities for your students.
• Sustainable Futures
- According to Forbes, Millennials and Gen Z'ers, who will make up the bulk of consumers in the near future, would spend more on products from a sustainable brand, due to their stronger concern about the environment.
- Their focus on sustainability would then become opportunities for businesses, making sustainability a valuable knowledge for your students (the future workforce) to pick up on.
