IVEY BUSINESS SCHOOL’S INTERNATIONAL RANKINGS
Dean Carol Stephenson
 Ivey
Business School participates in three media rankings each year:
Financial Times, Business
Week and the Wall Street Journal.
Each ranking surveys a different stakeholder group and quantifies
value from a different point of view and methodology. Overall,
Ivey Business School consistently ranks among the top business
schools in the world, particularly in Greater China, where Ivey
Business School was the ONLY business school ranked among the
world’s top 25 education institutions by all three rankings.
More
My position on the rankings is that they are just one of many
factors that are inputs to assessing business schools. If you
are considering applying to a school, you should determine the
program that best meets your learning and living style, your reasons
for pursuing an EMBA/MBA degree and your career aspirations. While
rankings provide summary information of how business schools compare
in areas in which common elements can be measured, such as average
salaries, they do not reveal the true nature of how one school
differentiates itself from another. Only through class
visits, speaking to alumni, current students, and recruiters,
as well as thoroughly investigating the full program, extra-curricular
activities and services offered can you make the right choice
for you.

Wall Street Journal, Executive M.B.A.
Rankings (September 2008)
This year, the Wall Street Journal decided to forgo ranking M.B.A
programs in favour of ranking executive M.B.A. programs. The Wall
Street Journal's first survey of executive M.B.A. programs ranks
the top 25 schools that "do the best job of turning up-and-coming
managers into full-fledged leaders."
Ivey was the only Canadian business school
that made it into the executive M.B.A. rankings, ranking 25th
out of the top 25 business schools in the world.
The Wall Street Journal's executive M.B.A.
rankings are based on three components: how a school scored in
a survey of E.M.B.A. students; how it fared in a survey of companies
familiar with E.M.B.A. programs; and how well it imparted management
and leadership skills identified as crucial in the student and
company surveys.

section on executive M.B.A.s for more information.
