FACULTY
IBC welcomes young scholars returning to China from advanced studies at leading institutions of higher education throughout the world.
IBC strives to attract and retain talented international educators and researchers. We are currently perfecting our system of recruitment, assessment, and professional development. With more and more young scholars joining the University, IBC intends to set up a special community for them so that they can gather together occasionally to share knowledge and cultivate personal development.
There are 54 full-time Chinese and foreign teachers in IBC, 75% of whom were educated at renowned overseas universities; including a Chair Professor of Chang Jiang Scholars Program and a professor of “Thousand Talents Plan”. Most teachers of subject courses are professionally experienced and certified with CPA, AICPA, ACCA, etc. Other than teaching and research, IBC faculty are greatly involved in the collegial development and student services.
In order to enhance our scientific research capabilities and enrich our faculty resources, IBC has invited Professor Cai Gangshu, from Santa Clara University, to be our Honorary Overseas Dean in charge of academic research improvement and talent recruitment from abroad.
THINK TANK
As a renowned business school, IBC places significant emphasis on building a friendly, internationally respected research environment for our faculty, while encouraging teachers to keep abreast of cutting-edge research from across the social sciences.
Teachers receive all-out support and encouragement from the school, such as a series of competitive policies and incentives, connections with scholars and experts at world-renowned institutions, very open research pathways, frequent academic workshops, forums and symposiums, etc.
IBC faculty publish frequently in scientific journals and their research has won not only peer recognition, but also the privilege of positive appraisal from China’s top officials.
INTERNATIONALIZATION
IBC has always been at the forefront in promoting internationalization at DUFE and in China as well. The school is young and energetic, quick to sense the demands of Chinese families and students, and reacts promptly to the social needs of its graduates.
With the aim of providing the best service to students and faculty, IBC is administered and operated through committees which adopt standard international governance structures and mechanisms.
The college has successfully created a global community involving both international and domestic students and faculty through a variety of cultural exchanges and interactions.
IBC is actively engaged in international cooperation for research and teaching. It has entered into agreements with a number of overseas universities to seek collaboration in education, research, faculty exchange, and academic activities. In the process, IBC not only thrives at joint-degree programs, bridging projects for overseas study, and international certification programs, but also steps forward into the future of offshore education. In 2015, Dongbei University of Finance & Economics and Hofstra University in the USA reached an agreement, which allows Hofstra students to pursue a second degree from DUFE while studying in Hofstra University. By June 2017, the first cohort of 9 Hofstra students successfully met the academic requirements and obtained DUFE’s baccalaureate degrees. It’s believed to be the first Chinese offshore degree program in America.
