Selected Alumni

Lawrence Fu (Singapore)

"I have chosen the BI-Fudan MBA because it is an innovative and unique joint-MBA program in Shanghai and Fudan is one of the pioneer universities in China. The modular and flexible structure of the program (completion in 24 months) enables mid-level executives like me to upgrade myself without leaving job. Its international flavour allows me to communicate and build up a social network with classmates from different backgrounds. As a manager working in an international company, this program offers me an opportunity to travel from Singapore and gain "practical" experience in Shanghai by exchanging business ideas and opportunities with my classmates. Most of the participants in the program are working for international MNCs or joint ventures. During discussions, they gave me fresh insights on how businesses are conducted in China and also paved the way for me to assume more responsibilities in China. Fudan's strong alumni network has also attracted me because as a foreigner aspiring for career advancement in China, I could leverage on its alumni network to understand China's business environment better. It has definitely allowed me to advance my career."
