China Europe International Business School (CEIBS; simplified Chinese: 中欧国际工商学院; traditional Chinese: 中歐國際工商學院) is a globally top-ranked business school located in Shanghai, China.

Established under an agreement between the Chinese government and the European Commission in Shanghai in November 1994, CEIBS was the first business school in mainland China to offer a full-time MBA, an Executive MBA and a wide range of Executive Education programmes. All three programmes are ranked in the world's Top 30 by the Financial Times. In 2012, CEIBS began offering a part-time MBA in Finance. By the end of December 2017, CEIBS had more than 20,000 alumni across the world, and had provided management training for over 130,000 executives.

The school's predecessor, the China-EC Management Institute (CEMI), was launched in Beijing in 1984. After CEIBS was formally established in 1994 in collaboration with its partners European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, it later moved to Minhang in Shanghai. Although located in Asia, CEIBS follows the European model of a business school[1] Today, CEIBS has its main campus in Shanghai's Pudong district. It also has campuses in Beijing, Shenzhen, Zurich and Accra, Ghana. CEIBS’ Zurich Campus was established in 2015, with the purchase of the Lorange Institute of Business. It now operates as the Zurich Institute of Business Education, and is the school’s base in Europe.

CEIBS has developed one of the top MBA programmes in Asia and it is ranked 8 in the world, according to the Financial Times (2018 edition).[2] In 2009, CEIBS became the first Chinese business school to make the world's Top 10 MBA ranking compiled by the FT.[3] Its EMBA programme, ranked 14th worldwide by the same publication in 2017,[4] is the largest in the world, topping 700 students in Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen. The school also trains about 10,000 students through CEIBS’ short-term executive programs each year.

Establishing its first campus in 1994 in Shanghai’s Pudong district made CEIBS the first business school in mainland China with its own campus, designed by Henry N. Cobb and Ian Bader of Pei Cobb Freed & Partners. In 2011, CEIBS began the 18-month construction of Phase 3 of the Shanghai Campus which doubled its size to 7.5 million square meters.

CEIBS opened its Beijing campus on April 24, 2010, within Beijing’s Zhongguangcun Software Park alongside the research centres of IBM, Oracle, Neusoft and more than 200 other leading technology companies. It effectively doubled the school’s total number of classroom seats.

Designed by the Spanish architectural firm IDOM, the Beijing campus hosts CEIBS EMBA programme and executive education courses. Each year, the CEIBS Beijing campus graduates almost 300 EMBA students and nearly 3,000 executive education participants. The campus is also a central meeting point for CEIBS alumni as Beijing is home to CEIBS’ second-largest alumni chapter (after Shanghai).

In May 2009 CEIBS started an EMBA programme in Ghana, being the first Asian business school to do so in Africa.[5] CEIBS was also the first Asian business school, and one of the very few around the globe, to become carbon neutral in 2011.[6]

It was announced in November 2015 that CEIBS had acquired the Lorange Institute of Business of Zurich for 16.5 million francs, with plans to train over 200 Chinese managers per month.[7]

Today the new entity, Zurich Institute of Business Education, offers one cohort of the prestigious CEIBS Global EMBA along with serving as the base for various study tours and shorter term executive education courses.

80% of the non-Chinese students who graduate from China Europe International Business School establish residence and work in the Asia-Pacific region.[8]
