How can an MBA and a Chinese Proficiency boost my career?

With a wide range of industries, emerging markets and an increase in spending power, China has become a wise choice for foreign companies looking to expand their business overseas.

However, it’s a vastly different country. Aside from navigating its cultural landscape and language, you also need to have the arsenal to understand complex business practices and issues in China. This is where an international MBA kicks in.

A Chinese MBA is unlike any other MBA in the world. Aside from typical business courses, an MBA in China instills Chinese business etiquette, a sense of social responsibility, a strong level of client relations, and innovative business strategies.

Majority of Chinese MBAs also have an east-west focus and an extensive alumni network. All these and more, give you great access to local and multinational firms across all global industries. 

But perhaps the most unique feature in Chinese MBAs is the integration of Chinese language courses and cultural immersion in their curriculum. Chinese people are very proud of their history, culture and heritage. A foreigner who commits to learning Chinese is highly praised and appreciated. 

China is a vital trading partner for many western countries. You can become a representative of your company during negotiations, build rapport with Chinese clients, deploy company culture, read Chinese contracts, and more.

MBA schools with Chinese courses

Many business schools in China offer Chinese language courses as part of, or in addition to, their MBA programs.

Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business (CKGSB) and China Europe International Business School (CEIBS) require international students to take Chinese language courses Pre-MBA. During the first year of study, Mandarin courses are also part of the curriculum.

Other Chinese universities such as Tsinghua University, Fudan University and Peking University also encourage international students to learn Mandarin and practice the language with their cohorts.
