The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology's (HKUST)
School of Business and Management Monday announced that its
full-time MBA program has been ranked by the UK's Financial
Times at number 17 in the world.
Among this year's Financial Times list for the top 100 MBA
programs, seven are from Asia Pacific, while HKUST is the only
institute representing Hong Kong. Such a rank has been the highest
ever for any Hong Kong run program on the chart.
The HKUST MBA program ranks number 2 in the world for "
international faculty" and number 5 in the world for the "
international experience" that it provides to students.
Acting Dean of the HKUST Business School Professor Leonard Cheng
said, "The Financial Times annual MBA ranking measures the
performance of a school and its full-time MBA program in 20
different categories.
I am delighted that the result of this comprehensive survey
reflects the quality of the School and our MBA program and
reaffirms our leading position in management education."
