THE GLOBAL CITIES PROGRAMME

Learning and professional experiences in Singapore, Dubai & BrusselsThe Singapore Institute of Management (SIM) and Vesalius College of Global Affairs, Brussels welcome university students and working professionals to join us for a credit bearing summer programme in International Affairs, Leadership, Business, and Management.

In today’s globalized society, those aspiring to be leaders in international business and management need to understand the complex dynamics of world politics, economics, and society. Similarly, future leaders in the public sector need to understand the corporate world and its influences.
