WHY TSM Korea


Motivation for TSM:
Lessons learnt in school during lectures and classes are enriching. They equipped me with the technical knowledge that I need to go for work. However, these knowledge are normally "textbook" kind of information. I heard of various stories of how a company start up and/or deal with challenges, but it's always better to hear it from the founder himself rather than from someone else. I believe TSM will help me learn beyond the school curriculum, providing me with more insights on starting and maintaining a business.
Furthermore, TSM is not something that will always be offered to me. After university graduation, there will be no such thing as "TSM". I had never went on a study trip before. Hence, I will like to take this last opportunity and go for a study trip before I graduate and step into the working industry.
