Messages from the Managing Director of the IMBA
The 21st Century belongs to Asia and Taiwan is the ideal location to take advantage of this. Being part of dynamic Greater China
as well as a gateway to the rest of Asia, Taiwan is the perfect place to seize boundless opportunities. However, to have the
knowledge, skills, and connections that are necessary to achieve these dreams takes hard work. The International MBA (IMBA)
program of NCCU is the way to get you there.
The College of Commerce at NCCU is a leading business school in Asia, ranked amongst the top 50 Masters in Management
Programs in the world by the Financial Times in 2008, 2009 and 2010. The International Master of Business Administration
(IMBA) is a premier business program and is one of the top eighteen business schools in Asia enjoying dual accreditation by the
Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) and the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS).
Our vision is to educate and nurture the best leaders in the world of business. Our curriculum has been carefully structured
and designed to integrate business domain knowledge, core competencies, and leadership skills essential for our graduates
to excel. We focus on leadership with high ethical and moral values. Meanwhile, communication skills and cultural sensitivity
are enhanced while students work in teams with other classmates of diverse cultural and professional backgrounds. Our
IMBA creates an environment for students to interact with renowned faculty and industry experts from all over the world in a
collaborative way on practical business projects and rigorous competitions.
What makes the IMBA truly unique is its distinctive access to the Asian economy. As we know, the Greater China market has been
growing at a remarkable pace. Taiwan is now one of China's top three major sources of investment, playing a pivotal role in its
growing economy. Taiwan really is the gateway to China--a bridging role for the West-because of the common culture, language,
and geographical proximities. This makes our program the ideal choice for professionals interested in the Asian market. In
addition, our talented faculty members have provided extensive consultation and collaboration with major businesses and the
government. Students benefit immensely from the experience and networking our faculty has established in Asia. The IMBA
offers unique courses on Asian business practices and regional studies, making our program the perfect conduit to learn about
this dynamic region and its emerging markets. We have specially designed courses on key areas including “Doing Business in
Asia” and “Entrepreneurship” to enlighten your learning.
We firmly believe that the IMBA knowledge, combined with work experience from internships, practical business projects and
field studies, will prepare you to be successful leaders with remarkable achievements.
Welcome to the IMBA, the passport to your future – an excellent leader in the world of business.

The IMBA Advantage
The International MBA (IMBA) program offered by National Chengchi University (NCCU) is the premier English-taught MBA program in Taiwan. The program has dual accreditation by AACSB and EQUIS and emphasizes the cultivation of elite professionals from around the world into future business leaders in an international environment. With the continued growth of Asia’s emerging economies and the expansion of firms on a global scale, the NCCU IMBA offers the perfect venue for international candidates to learn about Asian economies and for Taiwanese candidates to benefit from an international education without traveling abroad
Global View with an Asian PerspectiveThe unique design of the IMBA curriculum aims to equip students with the foundational knowledge of commerce and leverage
on this to provide students with a global view as well as an Asian perspective of the world's latest business trends. Students have
the option of specializing in Doing Business in Asia or Entrepreneurship. While all courses capture an international outlook of
business and how it applies in the Asian context, certain courses concentrate mainly on practices within Asia.
Diverse Student Body and World Class Faculty The IMBA program provides an optimal international and multicultural learning environment by maintaining balance in the
number of Taiwanese citizens and international students are admitted to the program. The international students represent a
diverse mix of professionals from more than 30 countries on 5 continents. This is complemented by the guidance they receive
from a faculty base comprised of academics and industry experts in Taiwan and from around the world.
Theory and Practice The program is designed to provide a meaningful balance between theoretical and practical learning. A majority of courses apply
the case study method, which enables participants to learn by doing and teaching others. Specially designed classes also provide
students with the opportunity to get involved with real world business problem decision-making as well as business cases.
Strong Links with the Business Community CNCCU has strong ties with industry and the government of Taiwan, and has various collaborative researches across a wide
array of initiatives. Students are given ample opportunities to interact with real world business leaders who are invited to teach
courses based on their professional disciplines and through numerous seminars held throughout each academic year of the
program.

commercial, and technological hub. Apart from being well known for
its IT infrastructure and manufacturing prowess, as one of Asia's 4 Little
Dragons, Taiwan is slated to be a catalyst in the future development and
advancement of Asia. The beauty of our IMBA program is that we are
directly in the middle of this blossoming progress.

Program Design
The IMBA program is flexible in design for a wide range of professionals and academics seeking business management education. The program offers an array of courses to meet any study schedule. This flexible yet proficient design allows candidates to manage their academic workloads and personal schedules to accommodate their careers and future outlooks. The IMBA prides itself by allowing candidates to make the most of their time commitment through their involvement with various activities arranged by the program as well as the IMBA Student Council.
All courses have been designed around the unique culture and outlook of the IMBA program. We utilize case studies, problem-
based learning, study camps and group projects, to facilitate learning. While the workload is demanding, students will definitely
be ready to cope with business challenges on the global stage upon graduation.
IMBA students are required to complete a minimum of 42 credits to graduate. The program is flexible yet adequate to
accommodate students’ schedules in order to fulfill all the graduation requirements within 1.5 years. Some students may choose

ConcentrationsThe program also offers the option of either pursuing a General MBA or a Specialized MBA in one of two concentrations, namely,
Doing Business in Asia and Entrepreneurship . Students will need to complete a predetermined number of elective courses listed

InternshipsIMBA candidates are given the opportunity to strengthen their managerial skills and gain hands-on working experience through
internships with local or foreign enterprises. These internships build students' industry knowledge and confidence to work on the
world stage.
Field TripsFaculty-guided tours in corporate Taiwan and in other Asian countries enable IMBA candidates to learn first-hand from business
professionals. IMBA offers several course-led field trips each academic year.
5International MBA

Expertise and Focus on Asia
The international aspect of each and every area of the IMBA, including the courses, student body, and faculty, make this program truly unique. What further differentiates the IMBA from other MBA programs is the expertise integrated in the special Asian featured courses that we provide under the Doing Business in Asia concentration. Aside from developing a global view in world business trends, it is just as essential to gain an Asian perspective of business. Our program is the perfect conduit for learning all about this growing region.
Chinese Business in Global PerspectiveThis is a course on the transformation of Chinese business in the era of globalization. The course is organized around
sixteen seminars, covering structural, urban, and industrial transformation of Chinese business and the Chinese economy.
Confucianism and LeadershipFor more than 2,500 years, Confucianism has had a strong impact on the philosophy, culture, society, economy, and
politics of China as well as Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. Its core values are also deeply rooted in overseas Chinese
communities around the world. With China, and Asia in general, becoming more important and influential in the world,
there is renewed interest in understanding Confucianism and its relevance to economic success. Given the shocking
awakening to the importance of moral and ethical responsibilities of business leaders in the post-Enron era, Confucianism
provides a useful framework to re-examine our understanding of leadership and reflect on our personal leadership
behaviors. The course is designed to help participants understand Confucianism and its relevant concepts and principles
on leadership to draw from such time-tested ancient wisdom and leadership practices fit for multinational organizations
in the 21st century.
Cross Border Strategic AlliancesThe course focuses on collaboration among firms across international borders as a means of creating value and
achieving strategic objectives and is aimed at providing participants with insights into the concept of cross-border
strategic alliances and how to create and manage them. After the course, students are expected to know the important
considerations in pursuing and implementing partnerships, be able to think analytically about alliances and apply such on
case studies as well as real situations through individual class projects.
Emerging Financial MarketsThis course discusses the financial systems applicable in emerging markets. Three main goals are stressed: first,
understanding the development process of financial markets and its impact on emerging economies; second, studying
the third and indirect financing channels in emerging markets; and last, learning about laws, regulations, and corporate
governance in relation to said financial systems. While the course is focused on emerging markets, students will also learn
about the markets of developed countries and a comparative study between the two.
9International MBA
Small and Medium Size Enterprises This course is designed to allow students to understand the development and growth of the robust SME environment
of Taiwan. After taking this course students should have a middle-to-upper management perspective on the holistic
operations of a small to medium sized business.
Strategic Talent ManagementThis course is designed to explore the key concepts and principles in leadership, organization development and
strategic talent management in the context of building and leading a high performance organization. The focus will be
on managing people as the most important assets, so as to create competitive differentiation for organizations facing
intense competition in the 21st century knowledge-based new economy. Participants will be exposed to different learning
experiences besides class meetings, including action learning through group projects and assignments, reflective learning
through writing individual reflections, interactive experiential learning through management games at study camp, etc.
Participants will learn how self-awareness, self-management, and self-development relate to good leadership.

As part of our continuous quality improvements, the IMBA program has allowed the incorporation of English Taught Program (ETP) courses for all IMBA students. The ETP curricula at CNCCU are a platform that allows CNCCU students to build and excel in their English language communication skills while focusing on management topics. The platform is a first of its kind in Taiwan and incorporates only the best and brightest CNCCU students to join, akin to an advanced, elite program across all departments within CNCCU. By opening these courses to IMBA candidates, we hope to broaden the dynamism of the student base and further promote a multi-cultural environment within the broad base of all courses at the college.

Language Program
Many of our IMBA students interested in the Chinese language also apply for the Mandarin Studies Program offered by our university. The program attracts students mostly from Japan, Korea, the Pacific islands, the former Soviet Republics, and the Americas. This diversity offers an ideal and conducive platform for international students to communicate with each other in Mandarin Chinese and accelerate their language studies.
Regular courses are designed to enhance listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills at different levels; elective courses are
also available for those who would like to sharpen their skills in listening and speaking or to learn Classical Chinese, Taiwanese,
or Cantonese. IMBA students can choose between intensive courses which take place every weekday for 2 hours at a time or a
less intensive class which meets twice a week.
Workshops, activities and field trips are organized to provide students with opportunities to integrate culturally and socially
with local students. Instructors in the program are highly qualified with multiple years of experience in teaching Mandarin
Chinese as a foreign language to individuals with various linguistic and cultural backgrounds.

The IMBA Student Council
The IMBA Student Council is an organization run by current IMBA candidates. It endeavors to serve as a conduit between the
students, administration, alumni, business and local communities as well as other MBA programs in Taiwan and abroad.
Every year, the Council builds on the experiences of the previous student representatives to deliver better services for the student
body, better marketing of the program and stronger links that benefit both the students and the businesses that we work with.
The range of services varies from providing bilingual business cards to promoting social events as well as providing opportunities
to perform community service for those in need in the Taipei area. We also actively promote the IMBA program and IMBA
candidates to the business community. With an annual marketing event, we prepare a Candidate Profile Brochure with
professional pictures and polished resumes. This is followed up by presentations to headhunters, business organizations as well
as the human resource departments of businesses in Taiwan. Additionally, company tours are arranged each semester to further
expose the IMBA program and its candidates to the local business community.
Undoubtedly, the biggest achievement of the Student Council in 2008 was winning the honor to host the 2009 Global Business
Conference at the NCCU campus in Taipei. We were proud to show all of the top business schools from the US, Europe and Asia,
including Harvard, Yale, and CEIBS, the level of business education offered in Taiwan. The great facilities, devoted faculty, as
well as the breadth of diversity and competence of IMBA students all make our school a great place to further your business
education. The Student Council hopes to continue in this tradition by hosting more conferences and reaching out the qualified
applicants about the power and potential of the NCCU IMBA.
Being on International-MBA has been an incredible journey for me, both for my professional and personal growth. The diversified backgrounds of faculty and student body provide a truly global perspective on the dynamic business environment. The knowledge of professors with valuable experience in real world and the flexibility of the courses structure were absolutely amazing. I have been able to build on the skills and combine them with tools I have learned from the program, and apply it to practical working situations. The program far exceeded my expectations.
IMBA is a unique platform to meet people with common ambition and the drive in achieving high standards. It is an amazing environment to meet a large group of highly intelligent professionals from whom I have learned so much. More than being classmates for two years, they are important friends and people network for me in the future. I have the confidence to take on more responsibility and welcome new challenges at work.

IMBA Alumni Association– A Gateway to Excellence
Since its establishment in 2001, the IMBA program has graduated outstanding business professionals from across the globe in many industry sectors. The IMBA Alumni Association (IMBAA) was established in order to create, develop, and maintain opportunities for alumni through a life-long partnership that is dedicated to business opportunities, professional growth, community enhancement, and mutual support between past, present, and future IMBA students.
The association promotes the educational, professional, social, and economic interests of the IMBA Program and its alumni. We strive to form close bonds among alumni, former students, current students, faculties, staff, and the local community as well as the development of ongoing operations in regional alumni chapters and other alumni groups in an effort to expand the involvement and participation of the extended IMBA family in alumni affairs.
The IMBAA is operated in conjunction with several prominent alumni, the auspices of the Office of International Programs at
CNCCU, and a governance committee comprised of the current IMBA managing director and CNCCU top administrators. Through
the leadership of the governance committee, the IMBAA is governed by three guiding principles, namely:
Team BuildingA platform by which the extended IMBA family is able to gather on a bi-monthly basis for fun, and casual events. We publish a
quarterly newsletter, utilize the IMBAA website and promote a cross section of interactive events for the IMBAA extended family
to enjoy
Business NetworkingThrough the establishment of a directory and various social networking tools, the IMBAA has amassed a database that helps
match business opportunities, jobs, etc. among interested individuals. With the addition of the leaders forum IMBA course,
alumni and students are able to interact freely and effectively to match their needs as they arise.
Strategic AlliancesThrough strong ties with the EMBA program of CNCCU and other English speaking MBA programs in Taiwan and abroad, the
IMBAA ensures that outreach and collaboration are fluid and functional for all IMBAA members around the world, or across town.
These alliances allow IMBAA to participate in joint activities with businesses, groups and organizations that broaden our base of
both business networking and team building to the extended community.

opportunities to students and graduates.

Being a part of the IMBA program at NCCU has impacted my life tremendously. The selection of classes exceeded my expectations, and the professors deliver passionate and enthusiastic messages that I will truly use in my future career. The diversity of students in this IMBA program is amazing. There are students from all over the world with different cultural, educational, and career backgrounds. I did not expect to create such a strong bond with those in my class. We are passionate about the program and have a “corporate/IMBA” culture that you can actually feel. This applies to all IMBA students, no matter their personal schedules, we all have opportunities to interact and participate. Everyone works cohesively as a team. This school perpetuates the real life corporate culture found all over the world. These are real life experiences that I will take with me in my future endeavors not only help me grow as a business woman, but as a person. Not to mention, it is a great way to network ourselves for future opportunities.
23International MBA
Scholarships and Financial Aid
The IMBA program receives generous grants from well-known corporations in Taiwan, many of which subsequently offer scholarships to eligible local and international applicants through the IMBA scholarship. These are merit-based scholarships that offer a tuition waiver of up to NT$200,000 a year. Applicants must complete and submit scholarship applications along with an admissions application form to be considered for an IMBA scholarship. Please be advised that IMBA scholarship opportunities are subject to change as the stipulations and benefits of each scholarship may be altered by our program sponsors.
Other scholarships for international applicants are also available and a high percentage of our international students have
obtained them.
(1) The Taiwan Scholarship - provided by Taiwan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Education, which grants students NT$30,000 (approx.
US$850) per month.
(2) ICDF Scholarship - provided by Taiwan's International Cooperation and Development Fund, which grants full scholarships to applicants
strengthening relations between Taiwan and allied, friendly nations.
Studying at NCCU has given me both a broad overview, as well as a more detailed mastery of the specific areas in which I have chosen to concentrate. In working together with my classmates to apply this knowledge in real world simulations, I have gained a clear insight into both Taiwanese and foreign companies. You can read about the different business practices in Asia anywhere, but the NCCU program allowed me to put them in a cultural perspective. I highly recommend the MBA program at Zheng Da to anyone who is serious about doing business in Asia.

Jose Rodolfo PÉrez Penabad Guatemala
Living in Taiwan and attending the IMBA Program at NCCU changed my life. On the academic side, the knowledge I received from the outstanding faculty has been a determinant factor for my performance as a business person. With that knowledge and experience, I now have the honor of leading a Latin American company doing multi-million dollar businesses with Asia. On the human side, every single day I lived in Taiwan felt, every time, like the best day of my life. In Taiwan, I met the nicest people and built my strongest friendship relationships, which will be unforgettable for me. I will be eternally thankful with everybody at IMBA for making all this happen.

University Campus
The main campus of National Chengchi University (NCCU) is located in the southeastern suburbs of Taipei. The university
commands a beautiful view, in a peaceful setting, at the foot of Mt. Zhi-nan and is close to many tourist spots including the Zhi-
nan Temple, the Tea Display Museum, and the Taipei Zoo.
The main campus is approximately 103 hectares, with 80 hectares set aside as lush, green hillside. The Jing-mei and Zhi-nan
Rivers run through the campus forming a beautiful verdant landscape with the surrounding hills and vegetation.
Divided by Zhi-nan River, the campus offers a hill-foot side and the hillside. The hill-foot division is developed along the main axis
of Si-wei Avenue, with most university building complexes concentrated along the north-south passage. These include historical
buildings such as the Zhi-shi Building, Guo-fu Building, and Si-wei Auditorium. There are also new buildings constructed within
the past two decades, including the Chung-cheng Library, the Social Science Information Center, the General Research Building,
the College of Commerce, and the General-Purpose Building. The sixteen-story General-Purpose Building, completed and
opened in 2000, is now the landmark of the campus.
On the hillside are the Communication College Building, the Dao-fan Building, the Century Building, and the Ji-tao Building. All
of these buildings have wonderful views of the beautiful, winding Jing-mei River from the hillside.
At 5 kilometers in length, the tree-lined Beltway running through the hillside serves as the main traffic route for this campus
division. A hiker's path was also built on the hillside campus to provide leisure activities for the faculty, students and residents
from nearby neighborhoods. The vibrant academic scene in the hill-foot division and the beautiful scenery of the hillside division
combined clearly distinguish NCCU apart from other universities in northern Taiwan.
IMBA at NCCU provided a solid ground for both professional learning and networking. I am surrounded by so many young professionals from a wide range of industries. The dynamic student body provided venue for intellectual debates and experience sharing in our courses. Social and community service activities planned by the school and the student council ensure that our class is tightly bond and I can safe to say that my classmates will be my friends for life.

Life in Taiwan
Taiwan's total land area is only about 36,000 square kilometers; it lies off the eastern coast of mainland China -- a solitary island on the western edge of the Pacific Ocean. With Japan and Korea in the north, Philippines in the south, and China in the west, Taiwan's location makes it a perfect spot for further traveling.
The Taiwanese government has established 6 national parks and 12 national scenic areas to preserve Taiwan's best natural
ecological environments and cultural sites: Take in the splendor and sheer heights of the cliffs at Taroko Gorge; take a ride on
the Alishan train--one of only three mountain railways in the world--and experience the breathtaking sunset and sea of clouds;
hike up to the summit of Northeast Asia's highest peak, Jade Mountain. You can also soak up the sun in Kenting, Asia's version
of Hawaii; stand at the edge of Sun Moon Lake; traipse through the East Rift Valley; or visit the offshore islands of Kinmen and
Penghu. It's an awesome journey full of natural discovery!
The cultural aspects of Taiwan should not be missed. The blending of Hakka, Taiwanese, and Mainland Chinese cultures have
produced a rich plethora of cultural and social color. Whether it is religion, architecture, language, living habits, or food, it's one
big exciting melting pot!
The school campus is located right at the edge of Taipei, the capital city of Taiwan. Taipei is a lively and modern city, and is
home to approximately 6 million people. In the city, the food is exotic, the people are friendly, and there are top-notch spots for
sightseeing. Being just minutes away from the heart of Taipei, our campus provides students with the closeness and contact of
city life while maintaining the peaceful and relaxed pace of a suburb!
