EDHEC ranked 7th best business school in Europe by the Financial Times

EDHEC is #3 in France – Proof of its position among the nation’s elite schools

Mumbai, 6 December 2022 – EDHEC Business School moved up three spots in the 2022 Financial Times Top 10 Best European Business Schools ranking to assume the #7 position. It also achieved the #3 spot in France, further solidifying its reputation as one of the nation’s best higher education institutions of business and management education.

This new FT ranking, which concludes a period of strong performance by EDHEC, reinforces the school’s standing among Europe’s finest business institutions, including Bocconi, London Business School, and the University of St. Gallen. EDHEC’s placement in the ranking, alongside HEC Paris and ESCP Business School, spotlights the high caliber of France’s business education system, which is renowned worldwide. 

An ambitious strategy in business education

The 2022 Financial Times Top 10 Best European Business Schools ranking marks the continuation of an impressive trend for EDHEC. In recent FT rankings – including the Masters in Management, MBA, EMBA, and Executive Education (Open and Custom Programs) – the school has improved its standing in most categories.

EDHEC moved up three places in the FT’s 2022 Global MBA ranking (placing 18^th in Europe) and two in the 2022 EMBA ranking (placing 27^th in Europe). EDHEC jumped an outstanding 24 places in the Open Programme section of the FT’s 2022 Executive Education ranking and two in the Custom Programmes section of the same edition.

However, EDHEC truly shines in the category of “overall satisfaction,” a score based on feedback from alumni. EDHEC’s impressive ranking in satisfaction reflects its dedication to providing students with a truly personalised learning experience that helps them reach their professional and personal goals.

“EDHEC’s progress within the European Top 10 confirms its position among the best national and international higher education institutions,” said EDHEC Dean Emmanuel Métais. “With the announcement of our new position at #7 in Europe, we are confident that our strategic plan, ‘Impact Future Generations,’ is delivering the education and support that our students need to succeed. We are dedicated to training future leaders to solve society’s biggest challenges, and we will continue to improve our programmes to respond to a world undergoing a profound transformation.”

The 7th place European ranking not only recognizes the excellence and selectivity of EDHEC’s degree programmes but also validates EDHEC’s dedication to students during the recent Covid-19 pandemic. Despite the massive disruption, EDHEC continued to serve students in all degree programmes – bachelor to executive education.
