The intention was to facilitate the fast economic growth in China and Asia. The Centre, after 10 years continuous growth and development, an effective model of a bilingual MBA has emerged in China. Based on the model, various modules and activities are taught by Chinese and UK staff. It provides an opportunity for the students to appreciate innovative teaching and learning, to expose them to new theories, management practice, case studies and at the same time not to neglect the Chinese and Asia values and “Guanxi”(relationship). After 10 years intensive growth and development, about 702 students have been awarded the Postgraduate Diploma or MBA degrees by the University of Wales, UK. Less
