The programme moves up one place from last year with standout scores for international experience
In the Financial Times annual ranking of the top 100 Master in Management programmes, ESCP ranks 1st across the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, Italy and Poland, 3rd in France, 5th in Europe, and 6th worldwide, moving up one place from 2025.
ESCP’s Master in Management (MiM) continues to stand out for the international scope of its programme and community. The programme ranks 4th globally for international course experience and has both the most international student cohort (98%) and faculty (94%) among the global top 10.
With more than 1,200 students graduating every year — the largest cohort among the FT MiM top 100 — ESCP’s MiM has the scale to make a meaningful impact across organisations, industries and countries worldwide.
This reach is matched by an overall satisfaction rate of 8.81. According to the 2026 FT ranking, 100% of the most recent ESCP MiM class found employment within three months of completing the programme.
Moving between borders and disciplines
Delivered over two years, with the opportunity to study across two to five European countries, ESCP’s MiM shapes accountable, bold and creative leaders, while enabling them to build an academic journey tailored to their ambitions.
With more than 70 specialisations, 55 dual degree partnerships, and 6 European campuses, students can combine disciplines, sectors and geographies to develop the breadth of skills increasingly demanded by a fast-changing global market.
This result is a strong recognition of the experience we offer our students and of ESCP’s distinctive European and international model. Our students learn across countries, cultures and disciplines, but what matters most is what they do with that experience: develop the judgement, adaptability and ambition to navigate change and make a positive contribution wherever their careers take them.

Developing hybrid skills for a changing workplace
Designed for flexibility, the MiM allows students to develop hybrid profiles across disciplines and industries.
As technology transforms the workplace, the programme continues to evolve: students learn to use generative AI professionally and critically, while in the last year the MiM has added specialisations in Consulting in the Age of AI, Cyber Risk Management, and the New Space Economy.
The MiM has long been built around flexibility and the hybridisation of skills, so we are not simply reacting to changes in technology and the job market. Our aim is to equip graduates with the ability to combine strong expertise across functions and sectors with new capabilities, including the effective and responsible use of AI. It is this combination that will help them adapt and set them apart throughout their careers.
Prof. Yannick MeillerAssociate Dean of the Master in Management programme at ESCP
Meiller also recently shared his perspective with the Financial Times on how AI is reshaping MiM admissions, emphasising that the technology should support rather than replace human judgement and applicants’ individual voices.
Expanding the international experience with the new Global MiM
This year, ESCP also welcomes the inaugural cohort of its Global Master in Management in collaboration with CEIBS (China Europe International Business School).
This fast-track dual degree programme takes students to Shanghai, Paris, London, and Zurich over 14 months, further expanding the international opportunities available to ESCP MiM students.
