Specifically, the ranking takes into account international employability, leadership training, diversity and the overall success of graduates.

ESADE currently offers six Masters of Science programmes in management: International Management (MIM), Marketing Management (MM), Business Analytics (MIBA), Finance (MFN), Innovation and Entrepreneurship (MIE) and Global Strategy Management (GSM), in addition to the CEMS Master in International Management (CEMS-MIM).

According to Josep Franch, Dean of ESADE Business School, being included in the top 10 of the QS Business Masters Ranking is “a recognition of our school’s commitment to the Masters of Science programmes in management and, in particular, our school’s commitment to innovation”. He added: “ESADE’s objective is to offer its students a unique and transformative educational experience. We must therefore remain on the cutting edge of training in new areas such as big data, blockchain and artificial intelligence, as well as more traditional fields such as finance and marketing, without neglecting the entrepreneurial spirit – one of ESADE’s distinguishing features.”
