Overview
Digital transformation (DT) is now no longer an option, it is an essential survival strategy that will determine the future successes of modern companies. For example, PayPal's market capitalization, which was acquired by eBay in 2002 for about $1.6 billion, exceeded $2.2 billion USD as of October 2020, and has grown close to $100 million in the last year alone. In the meantime, the total assets of the world's largest banks such as CITI and Wells Fargo have fallen significantly. The Digital Finance EMBA program encompasses digital technologies related to the financial industry such as artificial intelligence, big data, fintech, insurance technology, blockchain, virtual assets in addition to core management subjects. It focuses on how to apply the latest digital tools for organizational change and transformation. When taken with a dual-degree from FUS, the program is delivered in about thirty percent English and seventy percent in Korean language. AI Big Data, Venture Capital and AI Strategic Management specializations are also available with a dual-degree from FUS.
