香港MBA课程迅速跻身顶尖行列

尽管没有哈佛商学院(Harvard Business School)的光环，香港理工大学(Hong Kong University of Science and Technology)的M.B.A.（工商管理硕士）课程仍旧迅速跻身亚洲顶尖行列。

在《金融时报》(Financial Times)对商学院进行的最新评估中，香港理工大学商学院排名全球第八、亚洲第一。这一名次相当之高，特别是对于一个1991年才设立的课程项目来说。它远比那些西方顶级商学院要年轻，甚至比它的许多学生还要年轻。

香港理工大学的地理位置也很有吸引力，它位于清水湾(Clear Water Bay)，距香港金融中心仅20分钟车程，到中国内地深圳市，也只需乘坐短途轻轨列车。

然而这所商学院的规模依然很小。它的MBA班有大约只有100名学生，而大部分商科课程都会有数百名学生以及成千上万人的校友网络。香港商业文化尽管很繁荣，但还是缺乏类似硅谷(Silicon Valley)的创业土壤。

Hong Kong School Joined the Elite Fast

It's Not Harvard, but M.B.A. Program at University of Science and Technology Played Up Proximity to Mainland China.

It may not have the ring of Harvard Business School, but Hong Kong University of Science and Technology's M.B.A. program has quickly attained elite status in Asia.

The school ranked eighth globally in the latest Financial Times survey of business schools, and it's ranked No. 1 in Asia. That's a lofty position for a program founded in 1991—far newer than top-tier Western schools and younger than many of its students.

HKUST's location in Clear Water Bay—20 minutes from the city's finance hub and a short train ride from the city of Shenzhen in mainland China—is also a draw.

Yet the school remains small. Its M.B.A. class is roughly 100 students, while most elite programs boast hundreds of students as well as thousands of networked alumni. And despite a thriving business culture, the region lacks the kind of entrepreneurial base found in Silicon Valley.
