Testimonial: Panthip Sankamkrue, MSc in Strategic Management 2005-06

Published on January 12, 2006

"As a Thai girl with an extensive international experience both academically and professionally and an active co-founder of Expoze Media Company Ltd, a hip media company specialising in digital signage media in Thailand, the EDHEC M.Sc. in Strategic Management attracted me enormously as one of the major means to bring myself and my company to the very top level.

I graduated with my Bachelor in Economics from Thammasat University, in Bangkok, Thailand. During my studies there I gained different work experience both in my home country and also abroad in the U.K. and the U.S. I was also an exchange student at the University of Reading, in England.

As many of the top schools around the world seem to offer similar programmes, I realised what really makes the difference is the international environment. That is why I wanted to do my Master's degree abroad, meet people from all over the world and exchange experiences and ideas. I wanted to come back to Europe to study and maybe later work. I especially wanted to study in France or in Germany which are the major poles of the European Union. 

I searched for information in Thailand where I found out that EDHEC is one of the most prestigious Business Schools in Europe. In addition, EDHEC offers the international environment I was looking for. I was happy that the programme is in English as my knowledge of French was not very good. In fact, EDHEC could give me the chance to improve my French.

I decided to do the Strategic Management programme because it is the one which is closest to my interests and my career plans. It is a broad field that offers many professional opportunities in areas such as the ones I want to work in: Consulting, Media and Advertising. It is a programme that demands a lot of work from students and it is not by chance that it is always high in the European rankings. However, I also believe that it is rewarding for us and brings us valuable knowledge, new skills and enjoyment. When I came here, I found out that the EDHEC MSc programmes' campus is just few meters away from the sea, in Nice, a city famous for its wonderful beaches and great weather.

At the end of the programme I plan to look for a job in the U.K. I want to acquire work experience for 2-3 years, use my creativity and travel as much as possible. After that I plan to go back to Asia.  In the meantime I intend to make the most of my time at EDHEC."
