On July 14 and 18, 2025, students from Lac Hong University participated in the ASU Master Class series—a collaborative program between Lac Hong University and Arizona State University (ASU – USA). The program aims to ignite an entrepreneurial mindset and foster creative business strategies for students across all disciplines.
As part of the program, the first two sessions provided practical experience and opportunities for comprehensive skill development:
Session 1: Entrepreneurial mindset: your competitive advantage as a Technology Innovator
Although the content might seem exclusive to business students, this session demonstrated that an entrepreneurial mindset is essential for all fields, from engineering to the arts. Students were introduced to the 7 C's model (Care – Curiosity – Customer – Context – Creativity – Create Value – Cash) by Dr. Brent Sebold, which helps them identify problems, ask the right questions, innovate solutions, and manage finances. These are essential skills for every individual in the digital age.
Session 2: Business Strategies for the Creative Entrepreneur
This session focused on helping students from all majors understand how to apply creative thinking and communication skills to transform their passions into real value. In an era where entrepreneurship and innovation are widespread across all fields, the ability to build a personal brand, connect with customers, and develop a suitable business model becomes a key factor for sustainable success.
Key Highlights of the Program:
Students received a digital badge—an international digital certificate from ASU—recognizing their participation and learning efforts.
The sessions combined group discussions, idea presentations, and awards, encouraging proactivity and creativity.
The program was completely free, allowing all students to access high-quality international content right on campus.
The event created a fresh learning environment that connected theory with practice, inspiring students to "learn to be different, to understand themselves better"—true to Lac Hong University's educational philosophy.
With the Master Class series continuing to expand, Lac Hong University students will have many more opportunities to access international knowledge, develop soft skills, and gradually establish themselves in a dynamic and integrated learning environment.
