Dear IBE students,

The IBE Program is currently discussing the possibility of transferring from the School of Northeast Asian Studies (SONAS) to the Business School.

This issue may affect the future direction of the IBE Program, including its curriculum, course options, academic affiliation, faculty affiliation, Korean language requirements, and degree title. Therefore, before any final decision is made, we would like to hear students’ preferences and opinions.

Please complete the Google Form survey below.

The survey provides a brief explanation of the possible transfer and asks about your preference regarding the future affiliation of the IBE Program. It should take only a few minutes to complete.

Your response will be kept confidential. To protect students’ privacy, the survey will be collected and managed by the SONAS Office. Faculty members will not have access to personally identifiable information. The results will be shared only in an aggregated and anonymized form.

This survey does not mean that a final decision has already been made. It is part of the opinion-gathering process, and your response will be very important for future discussions.

Please submit your response by Noon, Mon, July 6.

Thank you for your participation.

Best regards,

Jae Hyun Gwon

Chair, IBE Program
