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 in the first year provide students with a solid grounding in global business management, while the second year courses offer students multinational strategies, knowledge of comparative management in Asian countries, as well as managerial practices in China.
