Welcome to Chengdu!   spacer Request Button
 

Welcome to China’s new boomtown! Chengdu is a leading business capitol in the growth region of southwestern China. It’s cutting edge and is taking center stage. Home to major manufacturing points for companies such as Intel, Volkswagon, Seimens and the new headquarters for Hummer, Chengdu offers students a chance to study business strategy and innovation where it’s happening. Chengdu also offers an unparralled cultural experience blending new China with fascinating culture.

Chengdu offers western amenities with a distinctly Chinese spin. Home to the famous Giant Pandas, Chengdu also has more tea rooms per capita than Beijing and many historic temples, museums and events to experience.

Webster University was the first American University to receive approval from the Beijing Ministry of Education to offer joint MBA instruction in China. Courses use the city as a living classroom, weaving together excursions, case studies, lectures, team research and presentations. Students learn from global faculty who can offer particular insight in China as an evolving global economic force.

In addition to coursework during the 9-week stay in Chengdu, you have the opportunity to experience business in China as you meet with executives from international companies such as British Petroleum, InBev/Anhueser-Busch and General Electric.

Douglas"Hearing the perspectives of my Chinese classmates and professors, and experiencing life around town has certainly enriched my learning experience more than I could’ve imagined. Also, I don’t care what anybody says…nowhere else in the world can you find street food this delicious and cheap."

Mike Douglas, Global MBA '09
