[photopress:CEIBS_students_at_study.jpg,full,alignright]Forbes business magazine has released its third annual list of China’s most valuable business schools in the Chinese language version of the publication.
Ten full-time and 15 part-time MBA programs were selected at the top of the list. The full-time MBA of China Europe International Business School (CEIBS, seen here)) was the top pick for three consecutive years, while the Beijing International MBA Programs at Peking University was the winner for the part-time MBA for three consecutive years.
Forbes found that full-time MBA graduates needed 2.7 years on average to recover the investment made in getting their degree. The part-time MBA graduates needed 1.5 years on average to recover the investment. Before their training, only 19.1% were high-level management staff. One year after they graduated, it turned to 28.6%, and 47.4% after four years.
The ones listed are the great schools which produce excellent results and excellent graduates. However, the list-making principal Liu Ruiming said, compared to these excellent business schools, many others had insufficient student resources.
Liu Ruiming said the polarization of Chinese business schools will continue. The high level schools will win more fame and benefits for their brand images, while the others will meet difficulties in student resources and employment if they can’t provide specialized MBA education. In the future, only the top-level schools can survive and become internationalized.
