The European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) accredited School of Business, Sun Yat-sen University with European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) after deliberation and vote at 17:00 June 14, Belgium Brussels Time. Henceforth, School of Business, Sun Yat-sen University becomes one of the mainstream business schools all over the world.

EQUIS is an international accreditation system founded by the European Foundation for Management Development, whose major duty is to grant certifications, assess higher administration learning institutions in their qualities and bolster the development of education. The management of EQUIS merely adopts elite members and emphasizes more on the social status, teaching quality and international influence of member business schools rather than the scales of members. Only more than 100 top-level business schools obtain the memberships of EQUIS. The fact that School of Business of Sun Yat-sen University succeeds in its efforts of being accrediting by EQUIS not only shows its educational patterns and determination to gear towards international conventions, but also symbolizes the great achievement the school has reached in fields of academic status, teaching quality as well as international influence, both of which win itself universal recognition and commendation from international academia. In the meantime, the success has also established foundation for further enhancement of high-quality international exchanges and the raise of global reputation of the school.
