The Charles F. Dolan School of Business continues to strengthen its international presence through strategic global partnerships, reaching a significant milestone with the first-ever in-person graduation ceremony for the Shanghai MBA program cohort at ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ’s Commencement on May 18, 2024.
The MBA program is available to professionals in partnership with Golden Education — one of the largest education management training companies in China.
“It is a truly historical moment that the Shanghai MBA graduates attended ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ University’s Commencement this year,” said ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ Dolan Dean Zhan Li, DBA, noting that the Shanghai MBA was the first ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ University degree program to be offered in a foreign country, starting in fall 2020.
Following the successful collaboration with Golden Education in Shanghai, ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ Dolan announced new partnerships with Jesuit universities in Spain and Uruguay, marking yet another milestone on the business school’s international expansion journey.
The new 4+1 degree agreements will enable undergraduate students from Comillas Pontifical University in Madrid (Comillas ICADE) and Uruguay Catholic University to pursue graduate degrees at ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ Dolan upon completion of undergraduate studies at their home institutions. These agreements will further the international students’ education and expand their global opportunities.
“Beyond Shanghai and India, ÐÓ°ÉÔ°æ Dolan is growing its partnerships in Latin America and Europe to globalize its visibility and reputation, build pipelines for graduate enrollments, and broaden its geographical expansion,” said Dean Li.
