China Europe International Business School (CEIBS; simplified Chinese: 中欧国际工商学院; traditional Chinese: 中歐國際工商學院) is the leading China-based business school, with all three programs ranked in the global Top 30 by the Financial Times. The school’s main objective is to contribute to the economic development of China by offering its students a thorough understanding of the latest international management knowledge and practices coupled with clear China expertise.

The school was established in 1994 in Beijing as a joint venture between the European Commission, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and Shanghai Jiao Tong University. It was then moved to Shanghai, where it spent its first years in Shanghai Jiaotong University's Minhang campus. IESE Business School in Barcelona has supported its development. Today, CEIBS has its own campus in Shanghai's Pudong district. It also has a campus in Beijing and facilities in Shenzhen.

In its short history, CEIBS has developed one of the top MBA programs in Asia (besides Indian School of Business and HKUST) and it is ranked 24th in the world, according to the Financial Times (2012 edition).[1] In 2009, CEIBS has become the first Chinese business school to (temporarily) make the worldwide top 10.[2] Its EMBA program, ranked 11th worldwide by the same publication,[3] is the largest in the world topping 700 students in Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen. The school also trains 9,000 to 10,000 students in their short-term executive programs each year. Its joint venture partners are Shanghai Municipal Government and the European Union.

CEIBS established its first campus in 1994 in Shanghai’s Pudong district, the new facility made CEIBS the first business school in mainland China with its own campus. Designed by world-renowned architects, Pei Cobb Freed and Partners, the school's architectural beauty combines Western architecture with the subtlety of Chinese beauty and grace. Using "Suzhou tiles" to band and lattice the school's windows, it creates a unique identity for the 5 hectare site in Pudong. The school's facilities are connected with an arcade walkway that encloses the main garden, often referred to as the bamboo forest.

In May 2009 CEIBS started a EMBA program in Ghana, being the first Asian business school to do so in Africa.[4] In addition, starting in 2012, CEIBS is launching a part-time Finance MBA and coordinating with IESE Business School to launch a PhD Program.
