25 years, the best is yet to come!
Co-founded by the Chinese government and the European Union on November 8, 1994, CEIBS has grown into a world-renowned business school and a recognised role model for effective co-operation between China and the EU. For over a quarter of a century, CEIBS has evolved from introducing and interpreting classic management theory from the west, to shaping and sharing Chinese management expertise in an era of globalisation.
The school is committed to educating responsible leaders in line with its motto of "Conscientiousness, Innovation, Excellence", and has played a leading role in the advancement of business education in China, enabling ground-breaking progress in curricular development, faculty teaching and research, talent development, social responsibility and campus construction.
Join us in looking back on our difficult, yet rewarding journey, and in looking ahead to the next chapter of the CEIBS story. The best is yet to come!
