The 2023 FT European Business Schools ranking

The 2023 FT European Business Schools ranking is based on a cumulative score, reflecting ESCP's outstanding performance across the four FT programme rankings: Master in Management (MiM), Executive MBA (EMBA), Executive Education (EXED), and MBA.

  • In the fiercely competitive field of MiM, ESCP was ranked 4th worldwide and 2nd in France in the 2023 programme ranking. Notably, the school dominated in the percentage of international students and faculty categories, claiming the 1st position, and excelled in international course experience, securing the 2nd spot. The programme also scored particularly well across the sustainability criteria, ranking 8th in the world by the FT for both the carbon footprint of the school and the teaching of ESG.
  • In the EMBA programme ranking, ESCP claimed the 3rd spot worldwide and 1st in Europe. The school outshone in international course experience (1st), career progress (4th), and ESG and net zero teaching (2nd).
  • In the broader category of Executive Education (EXED), ESCP maintained its global presence, securing the 13th position worldwide.
  • This year, ESCP’s MBA programme came in at 27th worldwide, moving up 25 places from the FT’s 2022 ranking. The programme showcased ESCP's commitment to internationalisation, achieving the 1st position in international course experience, 7th in international mobility, and an impressive 3rd in value for money.

We are immensely proud to be recognised once again as a top-tier business school in the Financial Times European Business Schools ranking.
