The Socio-MBA Leadership Department (Socio-MBA리더십학과) at Handong Global University offers an English-taught master's degree from its campus in Pohang, South Korea. This discipline sits at the meeting point of business administration and leadership studies focused on social impact, training students to run organizations that pursue both commercial viability and broader social goals. Students typically take coursework in finance, marketing, strategy, and organizational management alongside specialized subjects such as social enterprise design, stakeholder governance, and the measurement of social and environmental outcomes alongside financial ones. Leadership development forms a central thread of the program, with coursework addressing how managers motivate teams, resolve organizational conflict, and steer institutions through change while holding to a defined mission. Case-based learning in socio-MBA programs often draws on examples from cooperatives, nonprofits, and companies built around a social purpose, complementing standard business school material. Graduates of this kind of program tend to move into leadership roles within social enterprises, corporate sustainability and responsibility functions, nonprofit management, and advisory work supporting mission-driven organizations. A number go on to launch their own ventures, applying the combination of managerial skill and social-impact orientation developed during their studies. The Handong program runs for four to six semesters and admits students in February or March. Instruction in English opens the program to an international student body studying alongside Korean peers, consistent with the university's broader focus on leadership formation grounded in ethics and service. By the end of the degree, students are equipped to manage both the operational and mission-related demands of organizations that define success in terms beyond profit alone.
