The Silk Road Trip, which takes place in June 2010, is aimed at providing CBA undergraduates the opportunities to broaden their experience and develop their global-oriented minds. The participants of this program will learn to take up challenges, participate as a team, and have time to think over the current management-related topics while visiting trade hubs between Asia and Europe. The SNU College of Business Administration intends to celebrate its 35th anniversary by publishing the products of the Silk Road Project along with the trip.
