Shanghai MBA Graduates Attend U.S. Commencement

Five ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Dolan MBA graduates traveled from Shanghai to attend Commencement Exercises in person on Saturday, May 17; they are part of a program partnership with Golden Education — one of China’s largest management training companies.

The ceremony at the Leo D. Mahoney Arena presented the five Shanghai students an opportunity to travel to ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ, Conn., to visit campus and receive their graduate degrees from the Charles F. Dolan School of Business. ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Dolan continues to grow internationally through partnerships in both Latin America and Europe; seven Shanghai-based cohorts from the MBA program and one cohort from the MS in Business Analytics (MSBA) program have graduated thus far.

“The Jesuit Catholic mission — with its 500-year tradition — is a global one, which advocates to meet students where they are. Our Shanghai program reflects the global vision of ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ University,” said Zhan Li, DBA, dean of the Charles F. Dolan School of Business.

The MBA program, in partnership with Golden Education, has been available to professionals in Shanghai since 2019. All five Class of 2025 graduates who attended Commencement completed the MBA with a concentration in finance.

In addition to finance, the ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Dolan MBA offers concentrations in artificial intelligence, marketing, management, and others — allowing students to pursue relevant coursework while building a powerful ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Dolan network. The ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Dolan MBA boasts a #23 ranking by Poets & Quants on their list of Best Online Master of Business Administration Programs in the U.S.

“The Shanghai MBA graduates, successful and accomplished business professionals, are deeply impressed by the strong academic traditions and excellence of our University as well as the beauty of our campus. They are so proud of being members of our community,” Dean Li said.
