Peking University HSBC Business School and Cambridge Judge Business School announce Cooperative Programme for delivery of their own programmes in Shenzhen, China

SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 31, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

On August 27, Peking University HSBC Business School and the University of

Cambridge Judge Business School announced a Cooperative Programme in Shenzhen,

China, that extends previous business-education collaboration between the two

institutions.

The two schools announced in March 2020 plans to advance long-term

collaboration in business and management, beginning with the launch of two

executive education programmes focusing on innovation and international

management.

The Cooperative Programme consists of a new Global Executive MBA (GEMBA)

programme from Cambridge Judge Business School, and a Master's / Certificate

programme in China Studies for Economics and Management (MCS/CCS) from Peking

University.

Cambridge Judge Business School will deliver its new Global Executive MBA

(GEMBA) programme through Cambridge Judge faculty and guest lecturers, with up

to 50% taught in Shenzhen. The MBA degree and core curriculum of the GEMBA

programme will match that of the Executive MBA (EMBA) programme that has

operated in Cambridge since 2009 and which will continue in tandem with the new

GEMBA programme.

This will be the first time Cambridge Judge offers regular MBA teaching outside

of Cambridge, marking a new chapter in the business school's history when the

GEMBA programme begins in January 2023.

Peking University's MCS/CCS programme will be delivered concurrently in

Shenzhen through its faculty and guest lecturers. The programme is designed to

focus on professional knowledge of China's economy, financial market and

corporate management, delivering a profound and integrated vision of China with

a global perspective.

While each party will confer its own degree or certificate to students, the

Cooperative Programme offers new opportunities for senior students to gain

exposure to the business climate of both the Cambridge cluster and the Shenzhen

Pearl River Bay Area, combining business studies with an exposure to Chinese

business and management culture.

Says Professor Christoph Loch, whose 10-year tenure as Cambridge Judge Dean

ends on 31 August: "Cambridge Judge Business School is proud of our Executive

MBA (EMBA) programme, which attracts students from around the world for a

programme based in Cambridge. The parallel Global EMBA programme is a great

opportunity for experienced professionals based in the Asia-Pacific region, and

beyond, especially as they will also have the opportunity to participate in

China studies with our partner Peking University HSBC Business School."

Says Professor Hai Wen, the Founding Dean of Peking University HSBC Business

School: "The Cooperative Programme by Peking University HSBC Business School

and Cambridge Judge Business School offers a rare opportunity to learn from two

top business schools representing the East and the West. Students will acquire

a deeper understanding of core knowledge and gain first-hand experience of

contemporary business environments in China."

The GEMBA programme will commence teaching in January 2023 and the MCS/CCS

programme will start in September 2022. Information about admissions procedures

is expected to be announced later this year.
