Six CEMS academic partner schools are also ranked in the top ten, including the University of St Gallen, Switzerland, which comes out at number one.
Roland Siegers, Executive Director of CEMS, says:
"The fact that the CEMS Masters in International Management has been placed so highly in these prestigious rankings, highlights the growing significance of our global programme. CEMS and our partner schools dominate a segment of the education market that is increasingly recognised as important by the next generation of business school candidates, international companies, recruiters and wider society.
CEMS was founded thirty years ago and our vision remains the same today: to educate responsible leaders for a more open, sustainable and inclusive world. At a time of major global challenges, we can look forward to the next thirty years and beyond with more confidence, knowing that CEMS graduates will be leading in many of the world’s most influential organisations."
The CEMS programme unites international-calibre professors from leading universities and business schools, multinational companies, and non-profit organisations, jointly designing and delivering both theoretical knowledge and practical know-how through the CEMS Master’s in International Management.
CEMS was founded in 1988 and the network includes 31 schools on every continent, 71 Corporate Partners (multinational companies) and 7 Social Partners (NGOs). Upon graduation, students’ careers take a truly international path in a great variety of sectors and in many cases within multinational companies.
The latest CEMS graduate statistics show that:
- 97% are employed or continuing their studies
- 49% are living outside of their home country
- 75% work for multinational companies
