Partnership Programme
London Track
London Business School
In a highly connected world, it is vital for future business leaders to have a global perspective and a strong understanding of the international business culture. To empower our MBA students to be global leaders, the HKU Business School entered a partnership with the London Business School in 2006, soon followed by our partnership with the Columbia Business School (CBS) in 2007. These partnerships enable our students to get both an Asian and a global perspective, and are a manifestation of the natural synergies amongst premier business schools in the world’s three major financial centres.
Upon completion of the core modules, students opting for the London track get to spend a full semester in which they can take up to five elective courses alongside students enrolled in the London Business School’s MBA, EMBA, and Master of Finance programmes. Thus, they have access to the school’s distinguished student, alumni, and corporate networks built over more than 50 years as the best business school in Europe. Students also get to participate in London-based events, meet illustrious business leaders as part of the school’s famed speaker series, and visit leading firms in the city. London Business School issues HKU MBA students a certificate and an official transcript upon successful completion of the programme.
New York Track
Columbia Business School
Upon completion of the core modules at HKU, students opting for the New York track spend a semester taking up to 5 elective courses alongside Columbia MBA and EMBA students. As the only top Ivy League business school immersed in the global business hub that is New York City, students get the opportunity to access and interact with the over 100-year-old Columbia Business School’s eminent student, alumni and corporate networks in New York. Columbia Business School issues HKU MBA students a certificate and an official transcript upon successful completion of the programme.
Hong Kong / China Track
Fudan University
The HKU MBA’s dual focus on Asia and China business renders the programme highly relevant to the wider region’s dynamic and ever-evolving business environment. For students who want to further develop their understanding of, and build a career in, Greater China, they can choose to either take up electives at Fudan University in Shanghai or complete their course in Hong Kong.
China is the world’s second-largest economy, and Shanghai is its financial capital. Students opting for the China Track will get to study China-focused electives at the top-ranked Fudan University for approximately three months in the spring. Our partnership with Fudan University not only provides students with access to all of the university’s facilities and to the large pool of HKU MBA alumni in China; but also gives them a deeper exposure to various aspects of the Chinese business world through seminars, industry interfaces, real-world projects and enrichment workshops.
