Shanghai Business School Vies With Top Programs

Melissa Korn:

If you learn anything in business school, it's to aim high. China Europe International Business School is doing just that.

The Shanghai school, which opened 18 years ago, recently made clear its ambition to vault into the top tier of schools globally, alongside Harvard Business School, Stanford Graduate School of Business and London Business School. The business school offers a full-time M.B.A. in English and executive M.B.A. and nondegree executive education in Mandarin Chinese.

Leading the charge is John Quelch, a former Harvard administrator and London dean, whom CEIBS brought on last year to raise its global profile. The 61-year-old Mr. Quelch has opened the school's pocketbook to lure coveted faculty from elite schools with large pay packages and generous housing stipends. His reasoning: "Outstanding faculty" will draw "outstanding students," who will attract blue-chip recruiters, which then create a successful alumni body.
