Maryland’s Smith School of Business To Offer MBA in China
College Park, Md. & Beijing, China – October 7, 2002 - The University of Mary
land's Robert H. Smith School of Business and China’s prestigious University
of International Business and Economics (UIBE) today announced an agreement to
deliver an executive MBA (EMBA) program in Beijing. The EMBA will be deliver
ed under a new entity called the “SINO-US School of International Management
(SIM),” and will take place over 17 months, beginning in January 2003. China
’s Ministry of Education and the Degree Granting Committee of the State Counc
il recently approved the alliance.
“As one of just a handful of U.S. business schools authorized to deliver an e
xecutive MBA program in China, we are both excited and honored to make this an
nouncement,” said Scott Koerwer, associate dean and director of executive edu
cation at the Robert H. Smith School of Business. “By bringing together the
Smith School’s world-renowned business management program with the strengths
of UIBE, we will help China meet its growing demand for professionally trained
executives with a global perspective.”
Twelve Smith School faculty members will travel to China over the 17-month per
iod to participate in the EMBA program. Smith faculty will teach the majority
of the courses, with the remainder taught by UIBE faculty. The degree awarde
d will be an EMBA from the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of
Business. UIBE will award a “Certificate of Completion.”
“This initiative is part of the Smith School’s strategy to build innovative
global alliances designed to meet the rapidly changing needs of the world’s b
usiness education marketplace,” said Howard Frank, dean of the Smith School.
“We look forward to working with our distinguished colleagues at UIBE, as we
ll as with members of the Beijing business community, to help China’s entrepr
eneurs and other future business leaders succeed in a global, network-driven e
conomy.”
Like the Smith School's domestic EMBA, also beginning in 2003, the China progr
am consists of three integrated modules: foundation, project, and mastery. Th
e program begins with the Smith School's strong MBA core as the foundation, an
d integrates four critical mastery skills courses throughout the curriculum.
The mastery skills courses focus on the areas of technology, communications, e
thics and corporate citizenship, and leadership and creativity. The program a
lso incorporates an action-learning engagement project for the company sponsor
ing the participating executive. This portion of the program, taught by UIBE
faculty, enables the sponsoring company to tie the participant's learning to s
pecific company needs, and to benefit directly from the work the participant d
oes during the program.
Anil Gupta, Ralph J. Tyser Professor of Strategy and Organization at the Smith
School of Business, and John Hobbs, EMBA program provost at UIBE, have been a
ppointed co-academic directors of the EMBA program in China.
