AACSB specifically endorsed the School’s remarkable achievement in research and publications and the robust mechanism in ensuring quality teaching and learning. It also reaffirmed that the School has forged strong alliances, partnerships and collaborations with top universities around the world, becoming one of the top business schools in the region in just 20 years of establishment.

Leveraging on our deep root in Hong Kong, we have been fostering amicable connections with the business community in both Hong Kong and Greater Bay Area, creating more opportunities for its students. In addition to a strong governance system and a good track record, AACSB highlighted that HKU Business School has a sound strategic plan that all stakeholders are engaged and involved. Going forward, we are committed to developing ourselves into a world leading expert hub for data analytics, machine learning and digital transformation and a regional expert on finance, economics and business trends.
