The Economist, the world-renowned business weekly acknowledged for its high-quality analyses, employs 2 main criteria for its bi-annual ranking of the world’s top Executive MBAs, namely the quality of the educational experience and career development support offered to participants. To rank programmes, equal recognition is assigned to the responses furnished by the schools themselves and to the assessments made by students and graduates.
