With numerous outstanding MBA schools in Europe, you’d think that the obvious choice for French student Clément Jean would be to study in his home country. However, after obtaining his bachelor’s degree at Tsinghua University in China, Clément is now pursuing an MBA degree at the Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business (CKGSB).
Although business education in China is booming, it’s a relatively young industry. In fact, when the Financial Times published its first list of the top MBA schools in the world in 1999, no Chinese business school made the cut.
Fast forward 21 years later and Chinese MBA schools are dominating world rankings and accreditations. At the forefront is CKGSB!
Hear from CKGSB 2019 MBA student, Clément as to why he chose to study an MBA at CKGSB in China over a European school, and how he has found the China insights unparalleled.

Why Choose CKGSB MBA
Clément chose and recommends the MBA program at CKSGB for three exceptional reasons.
- CKGSB does not see something white or something black, instead, it sees the shades of grey in between. At CKGSB, there is always a rationale, an opportunity, and knowledge behind every topic or situation.
“For instance, we will not say a policy is bad, we will say okay, this policy was made for this purpose. It’s important to understand why it works, and why it fails.” According to Clément, this is the most important lesson he learned from CKGSB.
- CKGSB has a strong China insights perspective. Students will learn global economic statistics, while still being grounded in the Chinese point of view. This is highly valuable as China has one of the largest economies in the world.
- CKGSB integrates entrepreneurship into the program. They encourage you to be an entrepreneur by pushing you to find innovative solutions to problems and demands.
