Faculty
Instructors of the IMBA program are drawn from three equally qualified pools of local and international talent. A third of the instructors are faculty members of the College of Commerce at National Chengchi University (NCCU), most of whom have earned PhDs from universities around the world. Another third are scholars who are visiting instructors from overseas business schools, and the final third are senior industry executives who have long standing real-world business experiences.
International exchange and dual degree programs
To further assist students in facing challenges in the international business environment, NCCU International MBA offers students exchange programs and dual degree programs with universities in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Pacific. International recognition by AACSB International (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) and EQUIS (the EFMD Quality Improvement System) has made it possible to establish reciprocal exchange programs with over 100 schools worldwide. Spending a term abroad allows students to enrich their studies by experiencing other cultural and business environments.
Continuing education
In addition to offering business courses within the program, the IMBA offers an integrated system of continuing education. The program allows for both current IMBA candidates and graduates to enroll in selected courses within the program and throughout the College of Commerce on a non-matriculating basis to broaden their studies. Also, the IMBA program encourages prospective candidates to audit courses.
