NEOMA’s Global Executive MBA continues to climb in the QS Executive MBA 2024 World Ranking!

📣 We’re very pleased to announce that NEOMA’s Global Executive MBA has jumped another 5 places in the prestigious QS Executive MBA Rankings, now holding the 21st position in Europe and 56th worldwide! NEOMA Business School continues to impress with its strong performance in executive profile, career outcomes, and diversity.

🌟 International, flexible, career-oriented: Trendence student survey confirms the profile of ESB Business School 🌟

ESB students want change, grasp the ‘big picture’ and are internationally oriented. The results of the Trendence student survey verify this. The market research institute, which specialises in talent recruiting and human resources, evaluated 31 universities throughout Germany for the current study.

🌍 International outlook: ESB students embrace change and possess a global mindset. Their orientation toward international perspectives sets them apart.

🚀 Values that matter: Our students prioritise change over stability, freedom over security, and the journey over the destination. Their focus on career development and global exploration is outstanding.

🌱 Soft skills: Trendence also established which soft skills ESB students are equipped with. Flexibility, motivation and resilience are much more pronounced among them than in the comparable peer group. They are also ahead regarding their digital skills: our students recognise the challenges of digitisation and have no problems with its dynamics and complexity, yet they can also question it critically.

🔝 Top ratings: ESB students value the high professional and didactic expertise of the professors and lecturers at ESB, the international character and the practical relevance of the study programmes as well as the career services. In each of these areas, ESB Business School achieved top positions in the overall average.

🎓 ‘The Trendence student survey shows that our students pursue precisely the goals and values that we as a faculty stand for’, said ESB Dean Professor Dr Markus Conrads, commenting on the results. ‘We have great talents here who appreciate our range of degree programmes. Our key task for the coming years is to develop in an innovative way that meets the challenges of the future.’

Congratulations to Dublin City University Business student Aisling Wood and her team who competed in the #globalaccelerator round of the Hult Prize Foundation, the world’s largest student-led social entrepreneurship competition.
