CEMS Prague reaches record 11th place in the Financial Times ranking

The CEMS Master in International Management at Prague University of Economics and Business has achieved its best-ever result in the Financial Times Masters in Management ranking, reaching 11th place worldwide. The programme improved by six places compared with last year, coming remarkably close to the global top 10. This year’s result surpasses prestigious institutions including Bocconi and ESADE and further strengthens CEMS Prague’s position among the world’s leading management programmes.

“11th place is a result that exceeded our expectations. More important than the number itself, however, is the fact that we have been consistently among the world’s best. It shows that a programme based in Prague can compete with the most prestigious universities worldwide in both its concept and graduate outcomes,” says Ladislav Tyll, Academic Director of CEMS Master in International Management.

The programme’s strongest individual result came in international experience, where it ranked 5th worldwide, reflecting the benefits of being part of the global CEMS Alliance of 33 leading business schools. Graduates also report an average annual salary of USD 101,296 three years after graduation, while overall satisfaction with the programme reached 9.07 out of 10. The 11th-place ranking sets a new record for CEMS Prague and confirms its sustained position among the global elite.
