Cambridge Judge Business School’s Executive MBA (EMBA) degree programme for senior working professionals was today (18 November) ranked 18th in the Financial Times (FT) ranking of global EMBA programmes.

Among areas of the latest FT survey, Cambridge Judge was ranked second in career progress, or changes in the level of seniority and size of the company alumni now work in compared to before their EMBA; Cambridge Judge was fifth in “aims achieved”, or the extent to which students fulfilled their goals or reasons for doing an EMBA.

Dean of the School, Professor Christoph Loch, said:

“Our EMBA programme, now in its second decade, is an integral part of Cambridge Judge Business School’s mission to combine academic excellence, entrepreneurial verve and real-world experience to make a demonstrable impact in addressing global issues. We are particularly pleased this year to be recognised in such key areas as career progression and students achieving their aims; however, our strategy is not dictated by rankings, as the survey’s heavy focus on salary does not reflect all of the goals and values of our programmes.”
