2025 Ranking of the Best European Business Schools by the Financial Times: EDHEC Secures a Lasting Position in the Top 10
For the fifth consecutive year, EDHEC Business School features among the Top 10 institutions in the Financial Times’ “European Business Schools” ranking—a performance that confirms its long-term excellence.
This strategic ranking stands out for its full-range approach: it evaluates the flagship programmes offered by leading management schools across Europe, including the Master in Management (MiM), the Executive MBA (EMBA), the Global MBA, Executive Education Open programmes and customised Executive Education solutions.
Since 2021, EDHEC Business School’s sustained presence in the Top 10 reflects the quality of its teaching and research, the relevance of the skills developed by its learners (from initial-education students to managers undergoing career transitions and senior executives seeking transformation), as well as the real impact of its graduates on organisations and society. It also illustrates the ambition of the Generations 2050 strategy, which positions EDHEC within a dynamic of sustainable transformation and innovation. This dynamic is echoed in the school’s recent academic partnerships: twenty-eight agreements have been signed with prestigious, triple-accredited universities and institutions worldwide.
In October 2025, in the Financial Times “Executive MBA” ranking, EDHEC distinguished itself by achieving 3rd place globally for overall alumni satisfaction and for the strength of its network. The EDHEC Executive MBA also received one of the highest global scores for graduate satisfaction, with a rating of 9.82 out of 10. EDHEC ranks 8th worldwide for its open-enrolment Executive Education programmes (Financial Times – 2025 ranking).
Finally, EDHEC stood out in the 2026 Poets & Quants ranking of the best MBA programmes in entrepreneurship, where it holds 2nd place worldwide.
This full-range Financial Times ranking highlights the strength of the EDHEC community—students, graduates, faculty, staff and partners—whose collective commitment contributes to EDHEC’s international reputation.
