Bradford
School of Managament is one of the top 10 management schools in
the country, according to Financial Times research published today.
The newspaper's
2005 ranking of the 100 management schools offering the best full-time
MBA programmes places Bradford 10th in Britain, 18th in Europe
and 76th in the world - a rise of 10 places on last year.
The School
of Management is particularly highly rated for the value for money
it offers students. Its full-time MBA
is fourth in the world - ahead of such prestigious institutions
as Harvard, Wharton, Columbia and London Business School - on
this important criterion.
The league
table is widely used by companies and individuals across the globe
to decide where to go for top management training.
Bradford also
scores particularly well for the number of female academics and
students on campus, and for the depth and breadth of its internationalism.
Indeed, Bradford is the only business school in the list to submit
itself in a joint entry with a foreign partner -its Netherlands-based
associate college, NIMBAS Graduate School of Management.
"The
tables demonstrate once again that Bradford, which is Britain's
longest-established university-based business school, is clearly
in the premier league of global business education," said
Professor Arthur Francis, the dean.
