This July, Manchester Global MBA, EMBA, and MSc Financial Management graduates from the University of Manchester China Centre gathered in the UK to take part in the University’s summer graduation ceremony. Surrounded by family and friends, they celebrated this proud milestone—marking the successful completion of their academic journey.

In the height of the British summer, the warm sunlight brought with it a sense of joy and fulfilment. On the university’s green lawns, the golden glow of afternoon light softened the moment. The iconic red-brick halls stood solemn and majestic, while the steps of Alliance Manchester Business School gleamed with the brilliance of knowledge and ambition.

With pride and poise, graduates from the China Centre came together to honour their achievements and share stories from their transformative journey. Over two years of rigorous study, they not only deepened their expertise but also forged lasting friendships and broadened their international perspectives.

As they stand at this significant turning point, we extend our warmest congratulations—and look forward to seeing them thrive as future leaders in the global business world.

This year marks the 60th anniversary of Alliance Manchester Business School—six decades of nurturing business leaders with global vision and a strong sense of social responsibility. On this special occasion, the graduates not only celebrated their personal milestone but also felt deeply connected to the University’s rich heritage and spirit of innovation.

During this grand celebration, graduates from the China Centre shared how their two-year learning journey had sharpened their professional capabilities while broadening their international perspectives. From rigorous classroom discussions to immersive cross-cultural experiences, every step of the way reflected their personal and professional growth.

Graduation is not the end, but the beginning of a new chapter. As Manchester graduates, they will carry forward the mindset—Original Thinking Applied—and continue to lead with strategic vision and a commitment to sustainable development in an ever-changing business world.

Let us once again congratulate all our graduates. May you stay true to your aspirations, forge ahead with courage, and shine brightly on the global stage.
