Studying business in China

MBA programs are relatively new to China. However, Chinese businesses have learned to appreciate the value of an MBA. As a result, the number of MBA programs in the country is growing rapidly. If you’re interested in knowing more, you may want to read this article.

I’m guessing that many of you are not familiar with CEIBS (China Europe International Business School). The business school was created out of a partnership between the Chinese government and the European Union in 1994. It has been ranked within the Top 25 by the Financial Times' annual global business school survey for 8 consecutive years (2002-2010) and the Top Three in Asia for 6 years (2004-2010). All of the classes are taught in English, but full-time students are required to learn Mandarin. It seems that most companies that recruit on campus only want students who speak both Mandarin and English. Many students from outside Asia come here with the intention of working in China after graduation. They are attracted to the booming economy, and they can get their foot in the door by going to school here.
