I was quite worried about my Masters because as I am a mechanical engineer, I was unaware of how to make the transition to a Master of International Business course and of how to prove and sell myself to the admission committee. KGC helped me from the start to the end and helped make it a smooth journey.

Message from Dr. Karan Gupta

Did you know that New Zealand was the first country to give women the right to vote back in 1893?

Set in a picturesque natural setting, New Zealand, although a small country, has a lot to offer. The standard of living and ultimately, education is high in New Zealand with low levels of corruption, a good living environment and limited population. New Zealand only has a handful of universities but can offer you many majors you might find interesting. It is also very culturally diverse.
