The University of Sydney Business School’s global reputation for excellence in management education has been reaffirmed by the highly respected news magazine, The Economist, in its inaugural ranking of Master of Management programs.
The Business School’s flagship postgraduate program was ranked number one in Australia, number three in the Asia-Pacific region and number 35 in the world.
The move by The Economist, which has long ranked MBA programs, to also survey the pre-experience Master of Management courses (average work experience of students limited to one year), acknowledges their growing popularity worldwide.
The results for the business school at a national and international level, closely mirror those published last September by the London-based Financial Times in its annual review of Master of Management programs.
The Masters in International Management course delivered by the global CEMS Alliance of 30 elite schools including the University of Sydney Business School, was ranked ninth in the world by The Economist.
The Dean of the Business School, Professor Greg Whitwell, described the latest result for the school’s Master of Management and its CEMS program as “outstanding.”
“More importantly, it is recognition of our commitment to providing students with the skills to lead in an increasingly challenging world,” said Professor Whitwell.
“The Business School’s success in The Economist’s inaugural Master of Management ranking attests to our program’s pre-eminence as the best in class,” added the Business School’s Deputy Dean (Education), Professor John Shields.
“Underpinning our success is a growing recognition amongst employers and recent graduates alike that a high-quality master’s qualification offers a fast track to challenging, exciting and well-rewarded leadership opportunities in the business field,” Professor Shields said.
The University of Sydney Business School’s Associate Dean (Graduate Management), Associate Professor Philip Seltsikas, also attributed the school’s ranking success to its close relationship with industry partners.
“Master of Management programs are growing in popularity because employers are recognizing the role that Business Schools have to play in preparing the next generation of global leaders. The demand for Master of Management graduates is on the rise.”
Welcoming the Business School’s ranking result, Associate Professor Seltsikas said that it provided “prospective students with the confidence that our program is of the highest possible quality and can lead to outstanding career prospects post-graduation.”

Only the world’s top 40 MMgt programs were included in The Economist’s rankings based on a range of academic, cultural and career criteria.
In a series of “sub-rankings” the Business School was placed at 15th in the world for its culture and the effectiveness of its alumni network; 19th for its program content, academic staff and facilities; and 23rd for the post-Master of Management salary of recent graduates.
