The 18 faculty members of the Department of General Management all hold PhD degrees from well-known domestic and overseas universities. The department has set up complementary and interrelated research teams in six main research areas: strategic management and corporate culture, supply chain logistics and information management, quality management and standardization, corporate governance structure, entrepreneurship and

innovation management, and international management. The department regularly conducts exchanges with well-known domestic and international universities, and also invites renowned scholars to teach and lecture at the school so as to disseminate cutting-edge management knowledge.

The department aims to become a leading national and world-renowned research base in corporate strategy and management. Its development strategy is to highlight strong disciplines, promote research, form complementary and distinguished research teams, and rely on its rich academic heritage to train first-class management talents with both theoretical knowledge and practical abilities. Its approach to discipline construction is conceived of as ‘combinations’, namely: combination of Chinese background and international development trends, combination of theoretical study and corporate practice, combination of research and teaching, and combination of empirical research and case studies. In this way, the department has made itself a cutting-edge theoretical and practical platform to study China’s enterprise development issues.
