IIMB ranked 48th in FT executive education rankings

Stands 53rd in the executive education rankings

IIM Bangalore has been ranked 48th in the Financial Times Executive Education 2015 rankings.

The B-School also ranked 53rd in the Open Executive Education programme rankings, and has debuted in the FT 'Customised Executive Education' rankings at the 57th position. While IIM Ahmedabad has not been featured on the Open Executive Education rankings, it is ranked 83rd on 'Customised Executive Education'.

“Our current position in the FT ranking is really the result of two factors: the quality of our faculty, and a process of continuous improvement in the delivery of our Executive Education programmes," said Professor Ishwar Murthy - Dean Faculty, IIMB. "In particular, the latter involved a lot of hard work and planning. I am confident we will do even better in the years to come.”

Executive education offers non-degree programmes to corporations and working professionals which are either ‘customised’ according to the requirement of the organisation or ‘open’ for all professionals for enrolment.

The 17th Financial Times executive education ranked premier B-Schools across the world, including a record number of programmes.
