In foreign countries, if you want to study MBA, you need to take the GMAT entrance exam. However, only 765,438+0% schools need GMAT scores for EMBA, with an average score of over 530, while overseas students only need TOEFL scores of 550. However, this does not mean that EMBA admission is easy. Schools pay more attention to students' work experience, work ability, expert recommendation letters and interview results.
EMBA students require work experience, and many of them can get financial support from the company. In the United States, EMBA students come from various companies, such as manufacturing departments, financial departments, trade departments, government departments and so on. In Canada, more EMBA students come from government departments. Their average education age is 38 years old, 96% of them have obtained a bachelor's degree, and they generally have 10 years of management experience, with an annual income of $78,000. 60% EMBA programs offer courses in international business, trade and finance. There is also the 10% project, in which the school will organize students to go abroad for a week-long academic visit on an international issue. Some colleges offer a series of lectures on celebrities, inviting successful entrepreneurs, government officials and celebrities to give lectures to students and communicate with them.
In foreign countries, further study is regarded as an investment. Students who study EMBA hope to invest tens of thousands of dollars in two years, and it should not be a problem to get a return after studying. And Amy. People with BA study background and years of work experience are very popular with employers.
At present, the tuition standards of different schools vary greatly, with an average annual tuition of $65,438+$065,438+$0,000 per person, and the tuition of famous schools is as high as $25,000.
Under the background of global economic integration, especially since China joined the World Trade Organization, China enterprises are facing more complicated competition and more severe challenges. Therefore, it is more urgent for top managers of enterprises to systematically learn management knowledge and improve their management ability. The State Council Academic Degrees Committee recently approved 30 universities in China to offer executive master of business administration education for the first time, which is of great significance for training senior managers and improving the EMBA education system.
EMBA is a special form of MBA degree education, and their positioning is different. Because the MBA entrance examination requires foreign languages and mathematics, it sets a threshold for those executives who have rich management experience but have left the examination environment for many years. At present, the MBA in China is younger, and the high test scores are often young people who have graduated from college for about 3 years and have strong test-taking ability. The written test and interview of EMBA entrance are organized by the training unit itself, and the threshold is greatly reduced. Of course, this does not mean that any boss or boss can go to EMBA. Recently, Tsinghua University turned down a boss who was willing to spend $250,000 to study but didn't meet the requirements. According to national regulations, the on-the-job senior managers of large enterprises must have a bachelor's degree or above and have more than 8 years of work experience (including more than 4 years of management experience) before they can register. There are also great differences between the two in teaching mode. MBA mostly adopts the mode of "teaching+case analysis+team discussion", while EMBA pays more attention to the combination of courses and students' practical experience on the basis of inspiration, so it is more suitable for senior managers who are actually fighting in shopping malls. Nanjing University limits the number of EMBA students to 100. About 50% of the foreign teachers will be professors from Harvard and the University of Southern California, and 80% of these foreign teachers are from China, in order to have more "interaction" between students and teachers.
The EMBA literally translates as "executive master of business administration". March is the golden period of EMBA enrollment, and all EMBA programs are trying their best to make applicants "spend money like water and attract people". Which EMBA is right for you? Classifying and refining these EMBA programs will help readers polish their eyes and choose carefully.
EMBA needs at different price levels are different.
The "value" of EMBA has always been the most concerned topic, and some training institutions have begun to play price cards to attract students of different levels, and some "private" EMBAs have been playing low prices. Talking about the reasons, Shao Ming Lu, chairman of Beijing Guanghua Management Research Center, said that the market for middle and senior professional managers is below 654.38+10,000 yuan, and these people have great room for improvement and strong demand for their own charging. However, "time-honored brands" such as Peking University, Tsinghua and Fudan still maintain high prices, and Fudan's EMBA even raised the price. They are aimed at the relatively stable group of senior managers in large enterprises, so the price can also remain stable.
The characteristic EMBA classified by major is more popular.
Some EMBA training institutions offer "featured" EMBA courses according to hot industries in the market. Because the course is set in a hot industry, it gives people a sense of "following the fashion". When interviewing Zhou Huajun, the head of EMBA of China Europe International Business School, the reporter learned that EMBA is a training course aimed at the comprehensive ability of senior decision makers, and there should be no obvious tendency according to international trends. However, some hot industries in China are developing rapidly, which are closely related to the international community. Objectively, they have a demand for EMBA, so it is appropriate to "customize" a directional EMBA for them.
EMBA plays a "brand" role in international cooperation in running schools.
It is a "popular trend" in this market to cooperate with foreign universities to run EMBA. But how do domestic universities choose their partners? Are there any corresponding standards and conditions? Wang, head of Peking University's international MBA program, told reporters that a key factor in choosing a partner institution is to ensure that students get an authoritative EMBA diploma. Because world-renowned business schools, such as Harvard, will not cooperate with other institutions with their famous EMBA programs. In other words, even if there are EMBA programs of brands such as Harvard in China, they can only get a course completion certificate, not a diploma. If students spend hundreds of thousands of yuan in tuition fees and finally can't get the authentic certificate, it's very worthwhile. Therefore, how to ensure the gold content of the EM-BA certificate is the most important selection condition and cooperation basis for Sino-foreign EMBA cooperation projects.
