Dear New Students of International Trade,

Welcome to BINUS @Medan, and more importantly, welcome to the very first cohort of the International Trade Program. You are not just students, you are pioneers. The first wave of thinkers, innovators, and future global-minded leaders who will shape the future of international business from Indonesia to the world.

Trade is more than containers and customs in today’s interconnected economy. You will hear more about the idea of crossing borders, connecting buyers and sellers through digital platforms, and how global negotiation can lead to fair growth. As a student of International Trade, you are stepping into a dynamic field that combines economics, diplomacy, technology, and strategy.

The International Trade Department was built with a vision to equip Indonesian youth with the mindset and skills to thrive in the global marketplace. Here, your learning won’t stop at textbooks. You will engage in real-world projects, simulate trade negotiations, and analyze international business cases. Your lecturers are not just academics; they are also industry practitioners who will guide you to the real-world practice.

This journey will challenge you, but it will also empower you.

 

We encourage you to be curious, collaborative, and bold. Ask tough questions. Build connections. Explore beyond the classroom. Join communities, start projects, and dream big. As the first cohort, your voice and contributions will shape the culture and identity of this department for years to come.

Remember, trade is not just about profit. It’s about building bridges, lifting communities, and driving sustainable progress. We believe you can be part of that change.

So once again, welcome Trailblazers. Let’s build the future of international trade together!
