Editor’s note: The MBA program market in China is facing fierce competition, with many top Chinese universities and some international business schools offering these programs in China. The distinctive feature of the Audi EMBA program reported above is its “school – enterprise” cooperation model. The focus on brand-developing experience in China is especially applicable to Chinese private enterprises and thus may be uniquely appealing to EMBA applicants. In the international education field in China, foreign education institutions seek cooperation on joint programs that require hands-on experience and skills, and might consider a similar school – enterprise cooperation model.
