The UNIST Entrepreneur Night is an event, designed to create a campus-wide culture of innovation and entrepreneurship and to promote a networking amongst students, faculty and alumni. The primary purpose of this year’s gathering was also to celebrate its recent accreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). This accreditation represents that UNIST’s business programs at the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral levels, are proven to be among the best in business education anywhere in the world.
“I would like to express our gratitude to AACSB International for the honor of earning the prestigious accreditation, which is an affirmation of our position as a leading provider of business education,” said Kooyul Jung, dean of UNIST SBA. “All credit goes to the dedicated efforts of our faculty, staff, students and alumni, as well as the ongoing support provided by UNIST President during the multiple-year process.”
