Sponsorchip

The CEIBS EMBA programme design is based on the full-time MBA programme format, but tailored in its curriculum, methodology and schedule to meet the needs of senior executives in China. The programme allows working professionals to pursue MBA degrees without stopping careers or contributing to their employers. The programme design allows students to synthesize work experience with academic studies to enhance performance in both arenas. Currently, about 60 to 70 per cent of the CEIBS EMBA students are sponsored or partly sponsored by their employers.
