 The result also marks the fifth consecutive year CEIBS has ranked first among EMBA
programmes delivered by a single institution, distinguishing it from programmes 
jointly run by multiple business schools.

 The programme performed strongly in career-related measures, ranking fourth for
Aims Achieved, fifth for Current Salary, sixth for Salary Increase, seventh for 
Alumni Network, and eighth for Work Experience.

 Co-founded by the Chinese government and the European Union in 1994, CEIBS combines
an international outlook with a focus on Chinese business. As Chinese companies 
expand overseas and international businesses seek to navigate China’s complex market,
the programme aims to equip leaders with the cross-cultural understanding and global
perspective needed to operate across borders.

 For those seeking a deeper understanding of China, the CEIBS Global EMBA offers
a gateway to the Chinese market, while for those looking to build stronger connections
between China and the world, it provides a distinctive platform for learning and
collaboration.

 Its global network spans more than 20 destinations across five continents, with
exchange partnerships involving nine leading business schools in 10 countries. Participants
come from more than 20 countries and regions, and over 35% of the latest cohort 
live and work outside China, with executives travelling to Shanghai from across 
the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia.

 The programme’s international community extends beyond the classroom through an
alumni network that connects business leaders across markets and industries, fostering
cross-cultural understanding and opportunities for collaboration.

 Academic excellence underpins CEIBS’ sustained performance. The school has more
than 120 professors from around the world, while its case studies are used by more
than 1,200 institutions across over 80 countries, extending its research and teaching
to a global audience.

 Founded in 1995, the CEIBS Global EMBA was the first English-language EMBA programme
launched on the Chinese mainland. It continues to bring global management thinking
into dialogue with Chinese business practice, preparing leaders to make informed
decisions and navigate an increasingly interconnected business environment.
