In 2011, the aSSIST-SUNY SB Program was reorganized and reborn as i-MBA.
By the request of former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Science & Technology, Myung Oh, who proposed the cultivation of exclusive global-standard techno managers in accordance with rapidly changing domestic/international business environments, the State University of New York at Stony Brook (SUNY-SB) and the Graduate Institute of Management at the Seoul School of Integrated Sciences and Technologies (aSSIST-GIM) developed a joint program integrating business management and engineering. First launched in 1999, the Program grew yearly to be the most competitive program in Korea, incorporated with Stony Brook¡¯s outstanding academic resources and aSSIST¡¯s efficient school management.
This program combines Core MBA for business practice and competency development with Technology Management for Technology Specialists. Also, the program aims to provide practical as well as intellectual tools for engineers and technical specialists who are moving into managerial positions, and who need to complement their technical expertise with general business, organizational and strategic management capabilities.
2012 i-MBA Admission
This program aims to cultivate outstanding talent in companies through Departments formed by Contracts(*Special words only in Korea-Just directly translated) to offer a more effective and efficient education since 2010.
