"Two years ago, I joined SIMBA, first, to enhance my education after 13 years of working experience, and secondly, to obtain an MBA "made in Shanghai" (one of the cities to be in at the beginning of the 3rd millennium!) from an internationally recognized school, the ENPC of Paris, France. Both aims are attained.
During the two years of the curriculum, I have been impressed by the quality of the faculty. They are experienced, with a fantastic knowledge of their topic that they easily link with the other modules of the MBA and great pedagogical methods. Most of them teach at the other MBAs of the ENPC in Paris and Casablanca, and also other universities and MBAs. Many of them are not only professors, but work for companies or run their own businesses, which enables them to give a practical and down-to-earth view of their subjects together with the theoretical teaching.
Looking backwards at the education received and forwards at the career opportunities newly opened, choosing SIMBA for a foreigner in China was definitively the right choice."
