Welcome to the Graduate School of Business (GSB) of the Faculty of Business at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU). To enhance our academic strength and to raise the profile of our research and postgraduate studies, GSB provides direction to the development of the Faculty and spearheads the Faculty's high caliber research and consultancy work. With our emphasis on "academic excellence in a professional context" – PolyU's mission – our aim is to be recognised internationally as a leading provider of quality postgraduate business education in the Asia-Pacific region.
Through our research in strategic areas and our niche programmes, GSB is dedicated to the advancement of business knowledge. With our strong taught postgraduate programmes catering to the needs of the business community, our scholarly research, our professional consultancy and services, and our close interactions with stakeholders in both private and public sectors, our objective is to nurture the future business leaders of Hong Kong, the Mainland and the Asia-Pacific region. To provide a diverse offering of postgraduate and research degree programmes, including the Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) programme as well as an array of executive and professional development courses, GSB draws on senior academic staff from the constituent departments/school of the Faculty. To enrich our academic profile in these programmes, we are also bringing together world-class scholars, business leaders and senior professionals into our classroom through our strategic alliance network and partnership with top business schools overseas and on the Chinese mainland. GSB focuses on developing and nurturing a critical mass of scholars to undertake cutting-edge interdisciplinary research by consolidating and integrating various functional areas of business disciplines. The most up-to-date research findings are brought into the classroom to achieve the highest standards in business education.
