The University of Queensland has won the gong for providing the best MBA course in the Asia-Pacific region for the fourth consecutive year
The Economist has ranked The University of Queensland’s Business School’s ‘Master of Business Administration Program’ number one in the Asia Pacific region, for the fourth consecutive year.
Internationally, UQ Business School retained the number 16 position, once again identifying it as the leading MBA provider outside Europe and North America.
The Economist ranking assesses full-time study programs and is one of the most influential and authoritative globally.
UQ Business School Dean, Professor Andrew Griffiths, said it had been another outstanding year for the school’s MBA program.
‘This latest accolade cements our position on an international scale, as we continue to occupy a seat in the global top 20 alongside premier business schools such as Harvard, Wharton, INSEAD, and Booth,’ Professor Griffiths said.
‘These acknowledgements are a testament to the relevance and quality of our MBA, and to the high calibre and commitment of our students and alumni, who play such an instrumental role in ensuring our program’s ongoing success.’
UQ Vice-Chancellor and President Professor, Peter Høj, said students were drawn to UQ’s MBA from all over the globe, giving the program a particularly international flavour.
‘These students then frequently move into high-level careers in global and national companies, and as alumni, they become a fantastic resource and connection for new MBA student cohorts as they arrive,’ Professor Høj said.
‘And so the cycle of extremely well-educated, well-connected and highly satisfied UQ MBA graduates is perpetuated. I congratulate Andrew Griffiths and all at the Business School on their stellar performance in the MBA rankings again this year,’ Professor Høj added.
