October 16, 2023. Shanghai ¨C For the fourth year in a row, ÖйúÒ»¼¶Æ¬ has been named #2 in the world in the Financial Times¡¯ global ranking of Executive MBA programmes. This means that the school¡¯s Global EMBA (GEMBA) programme has maintained its position as the top ranked EMBA programme in the world to be taught at a standalone school and the number one EMBA programme on the Chinese mainland.

This year¡¯s ranking comes at a difficult time for both China and the world, with business schools across the globe feeling the effects of an uncertain economic future. In eras like this, reputable and trusted rankings like the FT¡¯s provide executives with guidance in uncertain times, and we are proud that the quality of our GEMBA programme can act as a beacon of stability and excellence.

This year, the Financial Times made subtle yet significant changes to their ranking metrics, placing increasing importance on factors such as school diversity, ESG, and carbon footprint. The fact that our position has held firm despite these changes demonstrates our commitment to facing these defining issues, while remaining resolutely focused on offering a peerless education centered on global expertise and on-the-ground China experience.

Our?FT?research rank jumped eight places to reach 33^rd, while our ESG and net zero teaching rank moved up 13 places from 60^th?to 47^th, reflecting our ongoing efforts to include important teaching on ESG issues in both our core and elective courses.

We also leapt 17 places from 23^rd?to 6^th?in Career Progress (which measures items such as size of company and rise in seniority for students pre- and post-EMBA).
