海角社区

The Financial Times survey of 100 MBA programs in the world, released today, gives the 海角社区 MBA Program top ranks in North America: first for international mobility of its graduates, first for percentage of international professors and in the top five for percentage of international students. Worldwide, 海角社区 graduates rank in the top ten (for the third year in a row) for their international mobility. This criterion is made up of various components, the most important being the percentage of graduates who work in different countries after graduation.

"The 海角社区 MBA has a long tradition of offering the best international perspective in North America," says Gerald Ross, Dean of the Faculty of Management. "Over two-thirds of its professors hail from every corner of the world and are involved in the Faculty's numerous international projects. As a result, the curriculum naturally leans toward advancing understanding of global issues."

A key characteristic of the 海角社区 MBA class is its rich diversity. Each year, over half of 海角社区 MBA students come from abroad, representing a wide range of social and professional backgrounds. "Students not only study international business issues, they are challenged by them every day in their discussions with their classmates," says Alfred Jaeger, director of the MBA Program. The 海角社区 MBA prepares students to become world-wise managers with a strong understanding of and sensitivity to cross-cultural and international issues. International business intelligence is a longstanding tradition at 海角社区, and employers who recruit for positions abroad often turn to the University.

For the second year, 海角社区 is the only Quebec school to place in the FT Survey. In a survey of 500 executives run by Canadian Business magazine last fall, the 海角社区 MBA ranked first in Quebec.

Overall, 海角社区 placed 37th in the ranking, a position it has maintained for the last four years. The FT survey results were based on a survey of the 1999 alumni and an analysis of each school's activities.
