What to Expect from the QS World University Rankings: Business Masters Rankings 2018
By Craig OCallaghan
Updated November 23, 2017 Updated November 23, 2017Later this month, for the first time ever, we’ll be publishing rankings of the best business master’s degree programs around the world. Specifically focusing on management, finance and business analytics, these rankings will provide anyone interested in business and entrepreneurship at postgraduate level with a new way to compare the best business schools and universities for these subjects.
Given the QS World University Rankings: Business Masters Rankings 2018 are the first of their kind, there aren’t results from previous years to look at for clues as to what this year’s edition might contain. However, that hasn’t deterred us from doing some digging for information about what you can expect when the rankings are released on November 28.
An ideal companion piece
The QS Business Masters Rankings 2018 will be published at the same time as the QS World University Rankings: Global MBA Rankings 2018, a ranking of the top full-time MBA programs in the world. Released in partnership with our sister site TopMBA.com, the QS Global MBA Rankings 2018 is a distinct and evolved version of previous MBA rankings published by QS, having been tweaked and adjusted to better match the demands of aspiring entrepreneurs and business students.
Taken together, the QS Business Masters Rankings and QS Global MBA Rankings will provide the business-minded student with everything they need to know when choosing a postgraduate option. With the popularity of specialized business master’s programs on the rise, students will be able to find information about the best finance, management and business analytics programs, and compare that to more traditional MBA courses before deciding which option is right for them.
A world-first
The QS Masters in Business Analytics Rankings 2018 enjoys the privilege of being the first ever global ranking of business analytics programs anywhere in the world. This fast-growing study option is particularly prevalent in the US, with universities such as USC, Michigan State, MIT and Notre Dame offering it as an option.
What is business analytics? Put simply, the field involves looking for statistical patterns in the business world and creating models to plan future business decisions and investments. Ideal for anyone with a love of big data, it’s an increasingly valued skillset in the tech industry as well as in consulting, finance and engineering.
Containing the best 45 business analytics programs in the world, the QS Masters in Business Analytics Rankings 2018 is set to be an unparalleled resource for students interested in this area of study.
Around the world
Finally, while we can’t reveal anything about the contents of the ranking themselves (come back on November 28 for the full results), we can reveal the vast scope of these rankings. Over 350 business schools have been considered and evaluated by the QS Intelligence Unit, with more than 50 countries represented in this initial assessment. This wide net, coupled with the fact these rankings are the first to conduct a truly global employer survey, means there’ll be something of interest for readers in all parts of the world.
Check back on November 28 to find out which schools and universities near you are included in the QS Business Masters Rankings 2018!
