Program Description:

Established in 1991, HKUST carries a vision to be a leading university with strong local commitment and significant international impact.  Located in Hong Kong, the international center right at the doorstep of the world’s new economic powerhouse, China, HKUST Business School is characterized by a genuine blend of East meeting West. We were the first in Asia to be awarded dual accreditation by AACSB in the U.S. and EQUIS in Europe. HKUST has been regarded as the region’s premier business learning center and its MBA program has been consistently ranked no.1 in Asia by The Economist and world No. 9 by Financial Times in 2010.

The full-time faculty members from over 15 countries are all PhD qualified which assures the MBA students of learning from the best.  Top executives holding leading positions in multinational firms are invited to join the school as adjunct faculty to provide students with substantial industrial insights.

While students build up a strong foundation in business essentials in both international and China-based contexts ranging from financial knowledge and management strategies to communications, career-track electives on General Management in China, Finance, Consulting, Entrepreneurship and Family Business as well as marketing help students to delve more deeply into the subjects that matter to their future most.

An international student body with 92% international students from over 25 countries brings in diversity. Partnering with other 56 leading business schools in 17 countries, HKUST further broadens students’ international exposure through its exchange program. Student-driven clubs activities, supported by the program, further enrich the academic experience, build leadership competencies and widen exposure beyond the classroom.  Dedicated career services including workshops, coaching by senior HR executives, consultancy service project and industry talks are also offered to assist
