Wharton Faculty Research Initiatives in China
The Chinatrust Research Fund on Greater China
Through the generosity of Chinatrust Bank (U.S.A.), the Wharton School established the Chinatrust Research Fund on Greater China in 2006. This fund provides for a wide variety of activities that support Wharton's faculty research in Greater China. Wharton also works with Chinatrust to develop and deliver training programs for the firm's senior executives, through the School's Aresty Institute of Executive Education. For more information on applying for grants from this fund, please contact Wharton Professor Marshall Meyer at meyer@wharton.upenn.edu.

The Guanghua School of Management at Peking University
Established in 2007, the Guanghua-Wharton Strategic Partnership is designed to promote academic collaboration as well as faculty and student exchanges between Wharton and the Guanghua School of Management at Peking University. An integral component of this partnership is the Guanghua-Wharton Joint Research Initiative on Firms and Markets in China, which offers research grants to Wharton faculty members at both schools. For more information on the Guanghua-Wharton Strategic Partnership, please contact Wharton Professor Marshall Meyer at meyer@wharton.upenn.edu.
The mission of the Guanghua School of Management at Peking University is to advance management knowledge and develop business leaders for China and the global society. As a leading business school in China, the Guanghua School commits to provide the local and international business community with cutting-edge management knowledge and services. With Peking University's heritage of innovation and social responsibility, the Guanghua School's faculty continues to serve the nation with aspiration and dedication.
China Europe International Business School (CEIBS)
Initiated in 2006, the CEIBS-Wharton Agreement of Cooperation spans a wide spectrum of collaborative activities, beginning with faculty research. In addition to the MBA student exchange partnership, the two schools have collaborated in developing EMBA and Executive Education courses. The CEIBS EMBA Programme includes a Global Track, which allows CEIBS students to study at Wharton for one module. On the Executive Education front, the schools have jointly developed a Board and Corporate Governance Program designed to guide senior executives of Chinese enterprises in managing their long-term sustainable development challenges. For more information on CEIBS-Wharton Cooperation, please contact Wharton Professor Z. John Zhang at zjzhang@wharton.upenn.edu.
China Europe International Business School (CEIBS) is an independent business school in Mainland China, a unique situation that prompted the Chinese government to designate CEIBS' property as a "Special Education Zone". This is probably the only instance where this term has been used. The school was established in 1994 as a joint venture between the European Commission and the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, in Beijing. It was then moved to Shanghai, where it spent its first years in Jiaotong University's Minhang campus. Today, CEIBS has its own facilities in Shanghai's Pudong district, a small yet striking complex designed by I.M. Pei.
