Impressions of SPU
The first thing that came to study at Sripatum University was that I felt very warm. The professors were friendly to the students and the professors themselves had very high potential. They researched and conducted research and then took the things that the professors had learned from the business world or the research world and used them to teach the students, allowing us to learn things that we had never known before or to develop further into things that we wanted to know more about. This was an impression that I had throughout my undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral degrees.
Applying knowledge to a career
All of them can be applied because the field I studied at the bachelor’s level, International Media, was about management and international trade. We can apply all of the knowledge we learned to real work, especially the principles, models in business management, management, or analysis of the business environment and analysis of businesses in various aspects, etc.
Problems and obstacles encountered in work and how to solve them
Starting my own company 7-8 years ago, I encountered many obstacles, starting from thinking about how we would operate the business in the future. But luckily, during my studies, I consulted with many professors. I knew how to set the corporate vision, set the mission and follow it, what model to use, and experimented to adjust the internal processes to be more efficient. The obstacles I actually encountered were mostly external factors. External factors are things that we cannot control, but we can cope with them. Now, I have created a risk management plan to solve any problems that may arise in the future. I learned these things from studying at Sripatum University.
