CUHK Ranked 4th in International Business Research
¡@¡@The ranking results were published in Management International Review, in an article entitled "Ranking the International Business Schools: Faculty Publication as the Measure". The study ranks the productivity of academic institutions based on their total number of articles published in the top international business journals during 1996-2000. These three journals are Management International Review, Journal of International Business Studies, and Journal of World Business. ¡@¡@CUHK is number four in the global ranking, and first in Asia. CUHK is also ahead of the renowned University of Pennsylvania, Harvard Business School and New York University. The top three universities are all from North America. ¡@¡@The study used publication output as the key criterion in measuring the quality of its faculty as well as the quality of the programme. The ranking result thus recognized CUHK faculty members' academic achievements, productivity, and contributions to international business research. ¡@¡@"I am most delighted by the results," said Professor Li Tien-sheng, Dean of CUHK's Business Administration Faculty. "Our colleagues have done a lot of high quality projects on international business research, especially on international business practices in Asian countries. These important research findings help strengthen Hong Kong's position as an international business center." ¡@¡@Professor Lau Chung Ming, Chairman of the Department of Management, noted, "Our competitive advantage lies in our extensive research network with local researchers and research institutions in the Mainland, Taiwan and Japan. In fact, we have already published 17 papers in these journals since 2001, more than the total sum during 1991-2000. I am confident that CUHK's outstanding performance will again be recognized in the next survey." ¡@¡@Established in 1963, the CUHK Business Administration Faculty is dedicated to provide a world-class business education, and to promote cutting-edge business research that caters for the evolving needs of the local and international community. |
