On May 30, 2026, the Department of Business Management at SUNY Korea hosted its 3rd Annual Parent Open House, welcoming approximately 70 parents of current students to campus. The event provided families with an opportunity to learn more about the department’s academic programs, student support services, and career development initiatives while strengthening connections between parents and the university community.
The program began with welcome remarks and introductions of faculty members, followed by presentations highlighting the Business Management program, student achievements, and graduate outcomes. Faculty and staff also provided information regarding the required Stony Brook University campus visit in New York, helping parents better understand the academic experience and opportunities available to students throughout their studies.
One of the highlights of the event was a special session on current recruitment trends and industry expectations presented by Mr. SangBoo Han, Director at Johnson & Johnson. During his presentation, he shared valuable insights into the evolving job market, the skills employers seek in new graduates, and strategies students can use to prepare for successful careers in business and related fields.
Throughout the event, parents gained a deeper understanding of the department’s commitment to supporting students both academically and professionally. The presentations emphasized the department’s efforts to provide practical learning experiences, career preparation resources, and guidance that help students achieve their academic and professional goals.
The program concluded with an interactive question-and-answer session, allowing parents to engage directly with faculty and staff. Participants were able to discuss academic requirements, student support resources, career opportunities, and other topics related to their children’s university experience.
Following the formal program, attendees enjoyed a luncheon and networking session, creating opportunities for meaningful conversations among parents, faculty members, and university representatives. The gathering provided a welcoming environment for families to share experiences and strengthen their connection with the SUNY Korea community.
Through events such as the Open House, the Department of Business Management continues to foster strong partnerships with families while supporting students throughout their academic journey and future career development.
