My name is Raymond – I’m currently a second-year student studying towards a Bachelor of Business majoring in Supply Chain Management and Finance.

It’s not often that an opportunity like this may come along, where I’m able to live independently overseas but still have a strong safety network around me! For this reason, I’ve chosen to go on a trimester exchange with the Waikato Global Experiences programme during my final year of studies to get a unique experience that not many other graduates may say they had.

I have chosen to go to Nanyang Technological University in Singapore as they have one of the largest and best business schools in the entirety of Asia! I hope to be able to see first-hand the impacts of supply chains and finance in the global trade hub that is Singapore – and to bring back valuable social connections and knowledge.
