As China's first national comprehensive university, Peking University draws on the essence of traditional history and culture, adheres to freedom of thought and inclusiveness, and is an important promoter of China's modernization process. The discipline construction of Peking University in economic management can be traced back to the establishment of the business department in 1902 at the Beijing Normal University, which was the earliest business department established in China's higher education institutions. With the reform and opening up and economic development of the People's Republic of China, Peking University established the Department of Economics and Management in 1985, and in 1993, the Department of Economics and Management and the Center for Management Science merged to form the School of Business Administration of Peking University, which was officially renamed Guanghua School of Management of Peking University in 1994. As the main body of business administration education at Peking University, Guanghua School of Management of Peking University is one of the best business schools in the Asia-Pacific region.

Adhering to the century-old spirit of Peking University and with the mission of "creating management knowledge, cultivating business leaders, and promoting social progress", Guanghua School of Management has gone through more than 30 years under the leadership of Li Yining and other former deans and current deans Liu Qiao. After several generations of Guanghua people's struggle, the college has developed rapidly and achieved remarkable results, becoming a leading business school in China and even Asia, a banner of China's business education, and forming a unique spiritual temperament rooted in Yanyuan's independent spirit and free thought.

Over the past 30 years, Guanghua has formed a complete discipline structure, first-class faculty and rich teaching system, attracting people with lofty ideals and responsibilities to forge ahead. In the future, Guanghua will adhere to higher academic standards, better teaching quality, supported by related academic research in management, economics and other related disciplines with domestic and international influence, and combined with business practice, to fully enhance the core competitiveness of the school. In the process of building Peking University into a world-class university, Guanghua School of Management will continue to surpass itself and make unremitting efforts to build a world-class business school.
