UCD’s Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School has fallen one place to 35th, in the Financial Times’ rankings of Europe’s top graduate business schools.
It is the only Irish business school to appear in the rankings. Last year it was ranked 34, and in 2012 it was ranked 33.
The Financial Times ranking of European business schools assesses the combined performance of Europe’s leading business schools across their full-time MBA, executive MBA, masters in management, and executive education programmes.
The top ranking went to London Business School, followed by HEC Paris in second place and IE Business School in Spain, which took third.
Nearly half the schools listed in the rankings are either from the UK or France.
