The EMBA program of UIBE Business School was ranked eighth on the biennial list of "Top EMBA Programs in China" in December, 2015. Since 2011 UIBE's ranking has made two improvements, giving full expression to the competitiveness and overall strength of UIBE's EMBA program.

The Sino-Manager magazine has already released such lists in 2007, 2009, 2011 and 2013 respectively. In 2015, adhering to international conventions and the current situation of China, the Sino-Manager magazine has conducted elaborate investigations on more than 50 Chinese or English EMBA programs in China. After more than five months, UIBE's EMBA program eventually ranked in the top 20 EMBA programs.

The "Top 20" list is based on evaluations on business schools and EMBA students respectively. Business schools are mainly evaluated from such perspectives as teaching faculty, teaching management, program operation, curriculum, alumnus network, internationalization, student enrollment and brand power. On the contrary, EMBA students are mainly evaluated from the improvement they've made in knowledge, social network, personal brand, business performance, personal fortunes and international mind. They are also asked about the contribution of EMBA studies to the management improvement and about their satisfaction about the EMBA programs.

In recent years, UIBE's EMBA program have explored a path with its own characteristics, taking lead in the teaching model and curriculum innovation. UIBE divides the entire program into sub-programs of Film & TV Media EMBA, Capital Operation EMBA and Internet EMBA and thus quickly promotes the brand with remarkable achievements in market expansion.

As a national leading multi-disciplinary university under the leadership of the Ministry of Education, UIBE is among the first group of universities selected for "Project 211", a governmental program aimed at nurturing Chinese universities with high quality. UIBE Business School is among the first group of elite universities officially approved to offer EMBA program in China.

Upholding the mission of "creating management knowledge and training high-quality business administration talents with globalized minds", UIBE Business School continues to optimize the structure and quality of teachers and explore how to train internationalized business professionals. The EMBA program has always been a promoter of open culture, blending Eastern and Western cultures through broad vision, incorporating things with inclusive mind, and adhering to life-time education with an open attitude. UIBE's EMBA program promises its students a bright future and will shoulder this responsibility. Ultimately the UIBE Business School will make a leap from "a business school that pursues internationalization" to "an internationalized business school".

This list is independently ranked by Sino-Manager pursuant to international conventions in such ways as telephone interviews, desk research, e-mails and online questionnaires. It covers all EMBA graduates in Chinese universities.
