This is one of the most popular graduate level programs in the College of Business. Because of being the first of its kind in Hong Kong, it is also very popular in Hong Kong. In order to achieve a high level student-staff interaction, we admit about thirty students each year. We attract high quality students, most of whom have full-time jobs in reputable governmental and non-governmental organizations. Some of the candidates hold positions at senior and executive levels. As a result, our program can further enhance the career prospects of our students both within their current organizations or other organizations.
