University Profile

Introduction

The only finance and economics university in East China focusing on international business, a world-first WTO Chair Institution, and the cradle of China's foreign trade talents.

Overview

Shanghai University of International Business and Economics (SUIBE), located in Shanghai, is a high-level university under the key construction of the Shanghai municipal government. As the only applied research-oriented university of finance and economics in East China that specializes in international business and trade, SUIBE has been dedicated to cultivating globally-minded talents since its founding in 1960, earning the reputation as the 'Cradle of China's International Business and Trade Talents.' The university has three campuses (Gubei, Songjiang, and Qibao) covering about 670,000 square meters, with modern facilities and a pleasant environment.

Internationalization is at SUIBE's core: it is among the world's first WTO Chair Institutions and hosts the WTO Asia-Pacific Training Center, the only WTO regional training partner in Mainland China. The campus has a high proportion of international students and partnerships with over 100 universities worldwide, offering abundant exchange and dual-degree programs.

Features & strengths

SUIBE's flagship programs include International Economics and Trade, Finance, Business English, and Law (with a focus on foreign-related legal affairs), all highly regarded in China. As a WTO Chair Institution, the university holds a leading academic position in WTO rules, international trade policy, and international commercial law.

Applied Economics is a first-level doctoral program with a postdoctoral research station, demonstrating strong research capabilities. In 2024, SUIBE was approved to establish an innovation base for collaborative training of foreign-related legal talents under the Ministry of Education, further strengthening its edge in international legal education.

The curriculum emphasizes internationalization and practical application, offering English-taught programs (e.g., International Economics and Trade, Finance) and dual-degree collaborations with renowned universities in the US, UK, and France.

Research platforms include the WTO Asia-Pacific Training Center, the Institute of International Business and Economics, and the Shanghai International Trade Center Strategy Research Institute, focusing on global trade governance and regional economic integration.
