Bloomberg ranks the Copenhagen MBA among the top 20 in Europe: “I liked learning about the applicability of sustainability”
“I liked learning about the applicability of sustainability,” said a previous Copenhagen MBA graduate when canvassed by Bloomberg.
On 10 December 2019, Bloomberg Businessweek released its annual ranking of the best global business schools, revealing that the Copenhagen MBA ranks among the top 20 in Europe. Schools are evaluated on four indexes: Compensation, Learning, Networking, and Entrepreneurship, and a school’s final rank is determined by responses from students, alumni and recruiters.
“The U.S. is an important recruitment ground for us, and the Bloomberg ranking assists in spreading the word about our MBA programmes,” said Poul Hedegaard, CBS MBA Director. “We noticed a shift in awareness in the minds of prospective U.S. students once we started participating in the ranking. This year, around a fourth of our students stem from the U.S. and we also see a lot of interest from previous U.S. graduates that want to explore staying on post-graduation to build a career in Denmark.”
Some students offered comments on what they found most attractive about the Copenhagen MBA:
“I liked learning about the applicability of sustainability,” said one previous graduate.
“The small class allows for intimate help from professors,” offered another.
In February, staff from the Copenhagen MBA will again travel to cities in the U.S. to meet future MBA students keen to soak up the latest in sustainable business practices and embrace living in one of the world’s most progressive cities.
The Bloomberg Businessweek ranking encompassed 131 MBA programmes across the Asia-Pacific region, Canada, Europe and the U.S. In total, 9,016 students were canvassed for the ranking and 14,925 alumni took the survey. 985 business school recruiters participated.
