History

Nanjing University Business School dates back to the courses of economics and commerce provided after education reform in 1902, during which period the faculty member of the school included the cultural academic leader Liu Yizheng (柳詒徵), who is the author of the first book of The History of Chinese Commerce and Business Ethics. The faculty of commerce (or business) was founded in 1917 at Nanking Higher Normal School which transformed to be National Southeastern University in 1921. The first dean was Yang Hsingfo (Yang Xingfo, 楊杏佛), who is a pioneering scholar of modern management in China. [2]

Then in 1921 the commerce faculty was moved to Shanghai and extended to become the business school of National Southeastern University with the name Shanghai Commerce College, initially with six departments including General Commerce, Business Administration, Accounting, Banking & Financing, International Trade, and International Transportation. It's the first modern professional university business school conferring degrees in China. National Southeastern University renamed National Central University in 1928 and again in 1949 renamed Nanjing University. National Central University business school became independent with the name National Shanghai College of Commerce in 1932 and later became Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. In the meantime, there was the Department of Economics under the division of social sciences in the main campus of Nanking, which was originated in 1921 and the first director was Hsiao Chunchin (Xiao Chunjin, 蕭純錦). [3] In 1945 there were three groups at the Economics Department: economic theory and policy, public finance, banking and finance. The department was merged to Fudan University in 1952 during the college and department adjustment by PRC government. [4]

Nanjing University reestablished faculties of economics and business management after 1978. Those faculties formed the International Business School of Nanjing University in 1988, and in 2000 the school was renamed Nanjing University Business School and at the time the school had five departments: Business Administration, Accounting, Finance, Economics, and International Economics & Trade. In 2006 the business school was divided into two collaborative interdependent sub-schools: School of Economics, comprising Departments of Economics, Finance, Industrial Economics, and International Economics & Trade, and School of Management, comprising Departments of Business Administration, Accounting, Marketing, Human Resources Management, etc.

NUBS launched MBA (Master of Business Administration) training project firstly in 1987 and started MBA education in Singapore in 1993. NUBS MBA program in Nanjing main campus start in 1994. In 1995, National MBA Entrance Examination Research Center was established at NUBS, the director of the center who was the dean of NUBS Zhou Sanduo (周三多) led a team to work out the MBA entrance examination blueprint GRK which was put into effect in 1997 and since then MBA candidates need to take part in the nationwide united MBA Entrance Exam. [5] NUBS start to provide formal EMBA (Executive Master of Business Administration) education in 2002.

Notes and references

  1. According to The History Evolution of National Central University (R.O.C. 26, 1937 CE) (《國立中央大學沿革史》 中華民國二十六年), it was founded in the winter of the first year of Yong'an reign (258 CE) during the era of Three Kingdoms. Since it was founded in CE 258, it had evolved and adopted different names in each dynasty or period in ancient China. It became a modern institution of higher learning in 1902 during Qing dynasty. Liangjiang Higher Normal School was closed in 1911 when the Qing dynasty was overthrown. In 1915 after the Republic of China was founded, Nanking Higher Normal School was established to replace the Liangjing Normal School. In 1949 when the Republic of China was replaced by the People's Republic of China in mainland, its name was changed from National Central University (国立中央大学) to Nanjing University (南京大学).
  2. Yang Hsingfo was the first Chinese modern scholar published papers on business management, which includes Personnel Efficiency published in 1915 (while he was at Harvard University Business School), and Application of Scientific Management Method in China published in 1918 on Chinese Science magazine. He was also the first Chinese modern scholar published the paper on innovation, which proposes bringing forward technological innovation through commerce. (The Germination of Chinese Management, Wang Yuanyuan, An Academic Edition of Manamaga, 2011.12)
  3. At the time, communism and socialism were introduced to China and advocated fiercely by some people. According to Hou Chian (侯健), a professor and dean of College of Liberal Arts of Taiwan University, Hsiao Chunchin's article Deliberation on Advocating Socialism in China published on Critical Review in 1922, is the first rational academic paper disproving the workableness of Communism in China.
