The 14th Five-Year Plan emphasizes the importance to pay attention to professional graduate education, strengthen graduate training and management, improve the quality of graduate education, and at the same time, encourage high-level international cooperation. The School gives full play to the advantages of online education. In order to further improve the educational quality of the School of Management and Economics and promote the exchanges and cooperation between our school and countries along the One Belt And One Road, the school and the GIBS Business School, University of Pretoria in South Africa recently launched online curriculum cooperation.
Since December 2019, our School has reached a cooperation intention with GIBS Business School in South Africa. Due to the epidemic, it has been failed to exchange our visits offline. After many online meetings, the two sides decided to cooperate in the first step in the form of students' participation in online courses. From June 2021, 22 students from the School's 2020 MBA International class will participate in 11 boutique courses offered by GIBS.
GIBS's first online course —— Tech Disruption officially began on June 8, 2021, and the participating students provided some of their evaluations of the course.
