Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motors, LG Chem, and Kia Motors are all examples of companies that have made South Korea the business powerhouse it is today. The Goodman Exchange Office offers an incredible exchange program at SolBridge International School of Business.
This week we will take a deeper look at our newest partner institution.
SolBridge International School of Business
Solbridge International School of Business campus (solbridge.ac.kr/)
SolBridge is affiliated with Woosong University, and is located in Daejeon, South Korea – a city at the junction of Korea’s expressway and railway systems and the location of Korea’s Silicon Valley commonly known as Daedeok Innopolis. This area has largely been responsible for the explosive growth of venture businesses and has positioned Korea as a technological leader. SolBridge has collaborated with many industry leaders to provide opportunities for student internships and other networking opportunities.

Students who choose to attend SolBridge for their exchange will experience classes at an institution that is designed to train top business leaders. The analytical and practical skills that students acquire while attending SolBridge will give them a wider marketability in the job market. The beauty of the city is that it provides a comfortable and convenient environment for students who arrive with a limited ability to understand the Korean language.
