EXTERNAL ACCREDITATIONS
XJLTU’s International Business School Suzhou (IBSS) was the youngest business school – and one of only 103 business schools worldwide – to earn ‘Triple Crown’ accreditation from the AMBA/BGA, AACSB, and EQUIS.

Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University has given us a precious insight into producing innovative talents in China’s higher education institutes. I hope that the University will make further efforts in the research of Sino-Foreign cooperation and make valuable contributions to the development of China’s higher education.
