The Shantou University School of Business has achieved accreditation from the Business Graduates Association demonstrating its positive impact on students and society, against independent international quality standards.
Launched in January 2019, BGA, which is the sister organisation of the Association of MBAs (AMBA), is the only business school quality assurance organisation to offer candidate schools a middle ground between membership and full accreditation.
BGA accreditation is a gold-standard quality assurance achievement that is awarded to business schools that can clearly demonstrate an increasing impact on their students and communities over a measurable period, using BGA’s Continuous Impact Model (CIM), which assesses the improvement in impact across a range of metrics.
All undergraduates and alumni from any of the business school’s programmes are invited to join BGA’s individual membership network. Students and graduates can strengthen a community that acts as a force for good in management thought and practice, through exclusive events and business content.
Shantou University is a public comprehensive university founded in 1981 in the Guangdong province in Southern China. The business school runs five undergraduate programmes, six Masters programmes and one MBA programme.
As a BGA member institution, the school gained “highly commended” in the Best Lifelong Learning Initiative 2022/23 category of the AMBA & BGA Excellence Awards.
Members of BGA’s accreditation panel commended the development of a new campus and the plans for the school to move to these more modern facilities in 2023. This was seen to provide opportunities for enhancing the school’s research activities.
The panel also mentioned the school’s location in an interesting and economically dynamic part of South China: along the South China Sea Coast and the Greater Bay Area. It is a region with a strong entrepreneurial spirit and well-known Chaozhou Merchant Culture.
