Executive education programme 12th globally

The NUS Business School has been placed 12th in the Financial Times (FT) 2016 global ranking of customised Executive Education programmes, moving up four spots from last year’s 16th position. NUS is the only Southeast Asian university listed in the FT rankings.

The rankings are based on surveys conducted with companies which commissioned executive courses and also with business schools.

“As a leading business school in Asia, we are in the best position to develop human capital for the region’s dynamic economies and corporations. Our blend of cutting-edge learning in a truly international forum is what makes NUS Executive Education a unique experience,” said Mr Jai Arya, Head, Executive Education, NUS Business.

NUS Business’ Executive Education programmes have attracted over 38,000 participants from around the world in the last 35 years. It was the first to provide open-enrolment Mandarin Executive Education programmes outside China and Taiwan, and has seen 95 intakes for its Mandarin General Management Programme since 1982. The School has also partnered Stanford Graduate School of Business to establish the Stanford-NUS Executive Programme in International Management, now into its 34th year.
