Programme Structure

In a global and unpredictable environment, business leaders must be equipped with extremely broad skills. They need both global and local perspectives, the ability to deal with constant changes and to manage complexity and lead innovation. Today’s managers also need to be able to communicate effectively in multiple languages. By encouraging independent thought, team collaboration and open communication, CEIBS provides students with the tools for success in many career paths.

The 18-month, full-time programme consists of compulsory courses of 37 credits in total, elective courses of 21 credits in total, and a practicum of 5 credits. It is designed to lay a solid foundation of management fundamentals, while providing flexibility to tailor to individual interests and career ambitions by offering two concentrations in Finance and Marketing respectively. Moreover, students are given the option to take part in the school’s impressive international exchange programme with the world’s top-tier business schools.

Teaching Methods

Although teaching methods vary by subject, most of the lectures and case studies come alive thanks to our professors’ extensive real-life experience in the business world. Most of cases are introduced from top schools like Harvard Business School, but CEIBS is accumulating a pool of China-specific cases written by its faculty and Case Development Centre. In addition to mainstream textbooks, teaching materials are also drawn from a variety of current sources such as academic journals, magazines, and videos. Some courses are delivered in formats like simulations, guest speeches, and seminars.

Language Courses

In the first academic year, a list of non-credit language courses are offered free of charge:
Chinese (beginning level)
Chinese (elementary level)
Chinese (intermediate level)
French (beginning level)
Spanish (beginning level)

International students are required to learn Chinese and encouraged to take the Chinese Proficiency Test (also known as HSK) to facilitate their MBA study and future career in China. It is impractical to start a career of professional manager in China without adequate Chinese language skills.

Compulsory Courses

The core curriculum consists of a total of 14 compulsory courses, covering topics in Statistics, Economics, Finance, Accounting, Marketing, Operation Management, Strategy, and Business Ethics.
