Master of Arts in Global Business Management (MAGBM) 文學碩士 (環球企業管理)
Why MAGBM?
2026 QS Business Master’s Ranking
- 49th globally
- 5th in Asia
- 2nd in Hong Kong
In recognition of the growing needs for highly developed global management skills, our department offers a Master of Arts degree in Global Business Management. The first of its kind in Hong Kong, this specialist programme helps students learn unique skills and insights which are required for conducting business successfully across political, economic, and cultural boundaries, and to become highly competent in integrating the global dimensions of key business functions.
We believe that modern technology will continue to press for globally standardised operating techniques and practices. We also think that global business managers need to understand such issues as comparative political risk, exchange risk, and personal conflicts between managers from different countries. As a result, the foundation courses provide students with a solid grounding in global business management, multinational strategies, knowledge of comparative management in Asian countries, as well as managerial practices in the world.
Some of the major reasons for choosing the CityUHK MA in Global Business Management:
- Global Orientation. All subjects are global in nature: they go beyond Hong Kong and China. The vast majority of lecturers in the programme are from across the globe and with significant international experience.
- Innovative Teaching. The programme employs both traditional and out-of-classroom learning; melding the theoretical with the practical through field trips and guided research projects; both virtual (through video-conferencing) and real.
- Learning through Experience Sharing. Average work experience of a typical student in the course is four years. Some students are already holding senior executive positions in their respective organizations.
Curriculum
The programme takes one year on a full-time basis, or four semesters on a part-time basis, to complete and offers a variety of courses pertaining to global business management. Students can also select elective courses most suitable to their career interests.
