ORGANIZERS

The economics and finance disciplines in Xiamen University were first established in 1921 and have a long tradition of excellence in teaching and research. In September of 1981, China's State Education Ministry approved the elevation of the Department of Economics to the School of Economics, making it the first school of economics established among top universities in mainland China since 1978.

Department of Finance at School of Economics, Xiamen University, has a long history back to 1921 as banking program of business department when Xiamen University was established. The department has also experienced a glorious history and become one of the top finance programs in mainland China. It was one of the earliest National Key Discipline (NKD) of Finance in China.

In 2005, the Wang Yanan Institute for Studies in Economics (WISE) was founded, as an effort by Xiamen University to build a first class modern economics and finance research institute and to facilitate international research and academic exchanges.

The Paula and Gregory Chow Institute for Studies in Economics (Chow Institute) is another strategic development. First founded as the Gregory and Paula Chow Center for Economic Research in 2016 under the auspices and generosity of Professor Gregory Chow, the Chow Institute was upgraded to an independent institution in May 2022.

Currently, Chow Institute, SOE and WISE are working closely together to promote Xiamen University as one of the major centers for economic and finance research and education in Asia Pacific.

School of Economics and Management, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS) is one of the most prestigious business schools for educating senior management talents in China. Under the education mode of “integration of schools with institutes”, both the School of Economics and Management and various institutes of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are jointly responsible for the graduate education.
