Harvard Business School once again placed first overall, with Stanford University taking second spot and the London School of Business finishing third. Schulich ranked ninth among business schools outside the United States and 12th among business schools in North America.聽
The 贰虫辫补苍蝉颈贸苍 Best Global MBAs ranking, established in 2006, rates leading MBA programs from around the world using a broad range of criteria, including academic quality, return on investment and global value. The survey employs a predominantly statistical-based methodology to rank business schools, with points awarded in key areas of measurement such as international scope and orientation, average GMAT, post-MBA average salary percentage increase and faculty research output.
鈥淲e鈥檙e pleased to once again be rated among the top 20 business schools in the world by a major global ranking this academic year,鈥 said Schulich Dean Dezs枚 J. Horv谩th, who noted The Economist and the Aspen Institute recently ranked Schulich among the top 10 MBA programs in the world (Schulich placed ninth in The Economist鈥榮 2011 global ranking and second in the Aspen 2011 global ranking). 鈥淭he 贰虫辫补苍蝉颈贸苍 ranking is the premiere global survey conducted by a Latin American business publication and complements the other major global business school rankings conducted by business publications in the US and Europe.鈥
Horv谩th added that the ranking is also important to Schulich because of the school鈥檚 growing focus on the Latin American market, and on Mexico in particular.
In addition, Schulich graduate Fabiola Sicard (left), director of Latin Markets, Multicultural Banking at Scotiabank, and Krista Larson, director of Admissions & Recruitment at Schulich, are featured in an article in the current edition of聽 贰虫辫补苍蝉颈贸苍 magazine that highlights the benefits and advantages of pursuing a Schulich MBA.
Sicard (MBA 鈥06) is the recent winner of the 2012 Ohtli Award, the Mexican government鈥檚 highest honour for a civilian living outside of Mexico who has devoted part of his or her life and professional activities to 鈥渇orging a new path鈥 abroad for their fellow citizens. She is also one of the founders of LAMBA, the first association for Latin Americans with an MBA in Canada.
Last November, Schulich officially opened a satellite centre in Mexico City that, Horv谩th said, will help recruit students, provide career placement services to alumni, offer executive education programs, support the local Schulich alumni chapter and manage local media relations.聽
