Sanchit Mittal
When I first came to VIU, I was worried that I might find myself alone and unable to navigate the Canadian academic system. However, the professors and staff at VIU allayed my concerns. The MBA program was definitely a life changing experience for me. It was not just about upgrading my professional qualifications. It was an experience that consisted of challenging myself, discovering myself, and growing my global network of professional and personal connections.
