The best global MBA programs

with 2 comments

The Financial Times (FT) publishes its ranking of global MBA programs every year. Its ranking attempts to “assess the effect of the MBA on … subsequent career progression and salary growth.” Consequently it draws its data from the schools themselves and from surveys of graduates at least three years after earning their MBA degree.

In building its rankings, FT analyzes “alumni salaries and career development; the diversity and international reach of the business school and its MBA program; and the research capabilities of each school.”

In comparison to the traditional rankings by Bloomberg BusinessWeek and U.S. News and World Report that focus on U.S. MBA programs only, the FT Global MBA Ranking includes international MBA programs as well as domestic U.S. schools together.

The top five business schools according to the FT global ranking and its three-year average rank are:

  1. London Business School
  2. The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania
  3. Harvard Business School
  4. Columbia Business School
  5. Stanford University GSB
