UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School only Irish business school in Financial Times European Rankings
Ranked at 34th this year in the Financial Times’ rankings of the top graduate business schools in Europe, the UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School is the only Irish business school to appear in this prestigious ranking.
Now in its tenth year, the Financial Times European Business Schools 2013 ranking assesses the combined performance of Europe’s leading business schools over four FT rankings: full-time MBA, executive MBA, masters in management, and non-degree executive education programmes.
“We are once again delighted to stand as Ireland’s only entry among the top business schools in Europe,” said Professor Ciarán Ó hÓgartaigh, Dean of Business at University College Dublin.
“This ranking is a measure of both the quality and breadth of our schools’ programmes. We will continue to benchmark ourselves against the world’s premier business schools and to recruit leading academics, develop world class expertise in key areas that we feel will shape the future of business education and promote social and economic recovery.”
UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School is one of a number of elite schools in the world and the only Irish school to hold the ‘triple crown’ of accreditation from the three international centres of business and academic excellence – EQUIS, AMBA and AACSB.
