The Trinity MBA also ranked well for diversity, securing 30th place for international mobility. The business school’s MBA ranked among the top 10 programmes globally for value for money. Some 84 per cent of Trinity’s graduates were said to be employed after three months.
Dean of Trinity Business School Prof Laurent Muzellec said: “We are immensely proud of Trinity Business School’s leap in the FT MBA rankings, a testament to our ‘Transforming Business for Good’ strategy.
“This recognition reflects our commitment to diversity, with a mix of student backgrounds, gender balance and high international mobility.
“Our leadership in climate action, especially our 18th global rank in carbon footprint management and 28th in ESG and net zero teaching, highlights our dedication to sustainability.
“It’s also encouraging to see the FT acknowledging our MBA’s position in the value for money category, highlighting that we deliver advanced knowledge at a competitive price.”
Steven Kilroy, director of the programme at Trinity, said the 21-place climb was “testament to our relentless pursuit of excellence, innovation in our curriculum, and the unwavering dedication of our faculty, students, and alumni”.
UCD was placed 29th in terms of international mobility, and 14th in terms of value for money. Four out of five of its students were said to be employed after three months.
