SKOLKOVO was the only Russian business school in Europe to make the ranking’s top 50, beating the Graduate School of Management at Saint Petersburg University (GSOM SPbU) and the RANEPA Institute of Business Studies (IBS).
The SKOLKOVO School of Management’s strong position was secured by particularly high placements for:
- EMBA programmes - 32nd place Executive Education programmes,
- open and custom programmes - 33rd and 25th places respectively.
FT experts also estimated the average annual income of graduates of the EMBA programme at almost $395,000 per year within three years after graduation. This gives SKOLKOVO graduates the second highest income in the ranking.
«The SKOLKOVO School of Management has made another breakthrough by making the Financial Times’ top 50 best European business schools. For us, this is an incentive to move ahead, constantly improve our flagship programmes and create new learning products to meet global demand. Credit for this achievement must go to the entire School - our team of professionals, international professors and experts and, of course, our students, who come to the School and become an integral part of it», said Yuri Levin, Dean of SKOLKOVO School of Management.
This is the 18th annual Financial Times ranking of European business schools, based on an assessment of five major programmes including MBA, Executive Education, Masters in Management and EMBA. The full rankings are available on the Financial Times website.
