ESSCA has moved up 12 places in this 2025 ranking, reaching the 68th position in the global ranking of the best management programmes.
A Demanding and Selective Ranking
This ranking is based on 19 criteria, with a significant portion relying on feedback from our graduates.
Among them, the salary three years after graduation remains a key indicator. This year, ESSCA alumni from the 2022 cohort reported a 4.55% increase in income compared to the previous cohort.
The Grande École programme has featured in the Financial Times Masters in Management ranking for the past 10 years, and this year it has moved up 12 places — a great recognition!
Strong Signals on Internationalisation and CSR
Several indicators reflect our strategic advances:
- 7th place (up 24 places) on the ESG and Net Zero Teaching Rank criterion and 38th place (up 31 places) on the Carbon Footprint Rank criterion, highlighting our growing commitment to sustainable development and social responsibility.
- 23rd place (up 1 place) on the International Course Experience criterion, which reflects the richness of the international experience offered to our students during their studies.
