National Chengchi University (NCCU) former president Jeng Ding-wang (鄭丁旺) awarded 18 students on becoming members of Beta Gamma Sigma (BGS) and shared his opinion on cultivation of business talents at I Yu Hall (義育廳) on Nov. 26.
Nine undergraduates and graduate students each were awarded BGS membership certificates during the NCCU Chapter Induction Ceremony.
BGS is an international honor society serving for business programs accredited by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International to encourage and honor academic achievement in the study of business.
NCCU achieved its accreditation in November 2008.
Chen Tsai-jyh (陳彩稚), a BGS Chapter Secretary, said that BGS is recognized throughout the global business industry as the leading honor society for business and management education.
“Being a part of BGS family weighs a lot more than an academic honor,” she said. “It is definitely a plus on your resume when you apply for further studies or a job.”
Office of International Program (OIP) said that by BGS regulations, students must be among the leading 10 percent of the junior or senior classes, or the first 20 percent of the graduate schools to be qualified candidates.
“Among all BGS chapters, only NCCU Chapter requires applicant’s conduct grade,” OIP Assistant Cheng Yu-chu (鄭玉珠) said. “We want students to take care of both their academic performances and make sure that are discipline people as well.”
Jeng listed five key marks for a top manager during the speech: professional knowledge, management ability, business ethics, global view, and the sense of mission.
“Professional knowledge is like one’s bone structure, while management ability is the fresh,” he said. “Only when these two go with business ethics can one become a real excellent business talent.”
Lee Tsung-yeh (李宗曄), one of the award-winners, finished his four-year studies at NCCU and decided to continue his master’s studies on Management Information System after one-year career life.
Lee said that, while at NCCU’s business programs, he acquired better skills and stronger sense of business ethics when it was compared with others.
“I can tell the rights and wrongs in the business world,” he said. “Most important of all, I have the determination to say no.”
