First executive MBA to span the three connected cities which drive the global economy
London Business School and Columbia Business School are launching EMBA-Global Asia with the University of Hong Kong.
We are pleased to announce the launch of EMBA-Global Asia, a new addition to Columbia Business School and London Business School's highly successful, top-ranked EMBA-Global programme.
London Business School and Columbia Business School are extending our fruitful partnership to include the University of Hong Kong in order to create the first and only programme to offer business education and networking opportunities in the world's three major financial centres: Hong Kong, London and New York. We believe that Hong Kong, a cosmopolitan hotbed of entrepreneurial activity and a portal to mainland China, is the ideal location for Asian expansion of EMBA-Global. Our new partner school, the University of Hong Kong, offers a respected international reputation, robust academic programmes, and state-of-the-art facilities.
EMBA-Global Asia is designed for high-potential, globally-focused executives and managers, primarily based in Asia, who are passionate about the opportunities offered by Asia's rapid economic development. The new offering will be a 20-month, intensive MBA programme taught in New York, London, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, with additional study in other international regions. Teaching will be divided equally among faculty from each of the three partner schools. Upon successful completion of the programme, students will receive a joint MBA degree awarded by Columbia University, London Business School, and the University of Hong Kong and will become part of the alumni networks of all three schools. The inaugural class of approximately 50 students will commence in May 2009.
EMBA-Global Asia exemplifies our commitment to providing a rigorous, innovative, truly global business education.
