Kellogg-HKUST EMBA The Kellogg–HKUST EMBA is a 13-time No.1 EMBA program in the world ranked by the Financial Times. PREMIUM EDUCATION FOR SENIOR EXECUTIVES

Two Schools.

One World Class. The Kellogg–HKUST Executive MBA program is a premium educational experience devoted to upgrading executives’ knowledge and management skills. The program encourages participants to think differently, look at their operations in a new way and relentlessly question and challenge. It is tailor-made for senior executives in Asia who have attained positions of leadership in their organizations. It helps them to raise the bar and understand the challenges ahead in a global context. The program develops competencies required by executives to make their businesses more competitive. Executive MBA participants learn about the latest global management tools and concepts. Organized in short but intensive modules, participants take two courses each month. Courses cut across traditional subject areas, providing tools and techniques for solving complex managerial problems. Emphasis is on three specific areas of management skills:

- Behavior in learning organizations
- International management
- Managing groups of co-operating firms for international competitiveness

Upon successful completion, participants are awarded one Master of Business Administration degree issued jointly by Northwestern University and HKUST. Graduates become alumni of both universities.

A year ago, they sat side by side in class.

This year, they found themselves standing inside a classmate's company in Ho Chi Minh City.

That is perhaps one of the most unique things about the Kellogg-HKUST EMBA experience. The cases, discussions, and business presentations don't end when the program does. Over time, they become invitations into one another's worlds.

Recently, a group of KH27 (Class of 2025) reunited in Ho Chi Minh City for a weekend together. Organised by classmate Hoang Le Danh, CEO of NutriNest, the gathering brought to life a phrase many carried with them since the first day of class: "Lifetime Friendship."

The weekend offered the cohort an opportunity to experience Vietnam through the eyes of a friend. Not through travel guides or social media posts, but through the places and experiences that shaped his life and career.

Alongside exploring the city's culture and food scene, the group also visited Hoang's company. Businesses they once learned about through lunchtime Business Card Series presentations and casual conversations suddenly became tangible. The visit offered a deeper understanding of the people, culture, and operations behind a company they had come to know through a classmate's stories.

A special thank you to Hoang for welcoming the cohort to his hometown, opening the doors to his business, and reminding us that some of the most meaningful lessons can still happen long after graduation.💜

Is "free" always the most persuasive price?

A recent Kellogg Insight article brings together five fascinating research findings on pricing, including why small price increases can boost long-term profits, how consumers really react to dynamic pricing, and why understanding the alternatives customers are comparing you against may matter more than the price itself. It even challenges conventional wisdom on free offers and gender-based pricing.

Pricing remains one of the most powerful levers in business, yet it's often one of the most misunderstood.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱'𝘀 𝗡𝗼. 𝟭 𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗔, 𝟭𝟯 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿

Some achievements speak louder than words.

The 𝗞𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗴-𝗛𝗞𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗠𝗕𝗔 has once again been 𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱'𝘀 𝗡𝗼. 𝟭 𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗔 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿’𝘀 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗚𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗔 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴, marking an 𝘂𝗻𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝟭𝟯𝘁𝗵 𝗡𝗼. 𝟭 𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 over two decades, a milestone unmatched in the ranking’s history.

Behind this achievement is a high-impact, low-ego community of exceptional students, alumni, and faculty, brought together through the unique East-meets-West partnership between the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

The impact of this distinctive learning experience is reflected not only in the program’s global standing, but also in the success of our graduates. According to the 2026 ranking, graduates reported an average salary increase of 69% compared with their pre-EMBA earnings.

The Financial Times’ 2026 EMBA Ranking further highlights this impact: “Salaries averaged $237,892 for alumni three years after completing degrees assessed for the 2026 Executive MBA Ranking, which is topped by the joint EMBA from Kellogg School of Management in Illinois and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.”

Graduates also gave the program an Overall Satisfaction score of 9.73 out of 10, underscoring the lasting value of the Kellogg-HKUST EMBA experience. Together, these results demonstrate why we continue to be recognised among the world’s leading EMBA programs, delivering meaningful impact on participants’ careers, leadership development and global business perspectives.

Particularly meaningful is our No. 1 ranking in Alumni Network, recognising a global community that supports one another through mentorship, leadership development, entrepreneurship, and lifelong connections.

Since 1998, we have been committed to developing global leaders through cross-cultural collaboration, world-class faculty, and a learning environment where accomplished executives learn as much from one another as they do in the classroom.

This remarkable achievement would not have been possible without the support and feedback of our surveyed alumni. 𝗔 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗞𝗛𝟮𝟱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆
