The Economics and Management School of Wuhan University becomes a new member of EQUIS Accredited Schools, making WHU the first one in Central China to achieve EQUIS accreditation.
From November 1st to 5th, 2015, the school had accepted on-site certification review by the EQUIS peer review team. During three days of on-site authentication, the peer review team made an all-around survey on the management and development strategy of school, as well as its teaching program, faculty and students, scientific researches, resources, internationalization, enterprise contacts and social responsibility, etc.
The Dean of the School, Professor Danyang Xie said that the EQUIS accreditation is a significant achievement."The Economics and Management School of Wuhan University is proud to be the first EQUIS-accredited business school in Central China, a dynamic area with a population of 300 million. This is a critical step for our School to become a leading business school in China with world-class standing. Our School, in further collaboration with international partners, will contribute to business knowledge creation and human capital development for China, as well as for the World."
As one of the world's three most authoritative international certification Systems, EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System) is set up by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD), which is famous for its comprehensive and rigorous review. Less than 3% of business schools in the world have received the EQUIS accreditation.
