Home to multinational companies, innovative tech firms, and vast numbers of unicorns, China appears from the outside to be a desirable place to study an MBA program; one that has the potential to set you up for future success. 

But what do current students in China think are the key benefits of studying there? 

In this video, we hear from three students who travelled from across the globe to Beijing to study the Global MBA program at Peking University Guanghua School of Management



For Colombian-born Rafael Eduardo Robayo Mendez, a passion for entrepreneurship and a desire to succeed led him to enroll in the PKU Guanghua MBA, where he felt he could gain a platform to enter China's dynamic entrepreneurship hub. 

Nicolas Huertas is also from Colombia. A former civil engineer, he aims to draw on his professional experiences in Colombia and his MBA in Beijing to create new opportunities that bridge the gap between China and Latin America. 

Rachel Rosalina, from Indonesia, was intrigued by the historic culture of China and wanted to understand more about the country. She felt enrolling in the PKU Guanghua MBA and studying in Beijing, the country's capital, would help her delve further into China and expand her mindset.

Top university in China

Peking University is ranked 1st in China and 27th in the world. The three main spirits that drive PKUers during and after their studies here, are 1. leadership: from medicine to politics, the future leaders of China are formed here. 2. Internationalization: strong emphasis on developing a global vision for leveraging all kinds of resources both in china and abroad. 3. Tradition: do not forget your origin when moving forward.
