MBA Ranking: Top Placement for MCI

For the fifth time in a row, Management Center Innsbruck can be pleased about a top ranking in the MBA ranking of the industry magazine. The study, conducted by the market research institute IMAD on behalf of Industriemagazin, confirms the reputation of the Entrepreneurial ^School® in Innsbruck as a first-class business school and top provider of postgraduate qualifications.

According to the study, the MCI can look forward to a growing level of awareness and an above-average recommendation rate. In addition to awareness and image, the 154 HR managers and directors of leading Austrian companies who took part in the study were also asked about the benefits of Executive MBA programmes. This is expressed above all in the development of personal skills and the expansion of the personal network.

More than 80% of those surveyed consider compliance with international standards to be desirable or indispensable. MCI also scores here: as one of only two universities in the ranking, the Entrepreneurial ^School® holds the worldwide accreditation of the renowned Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) as well as the double premium seal of the international accreditation agency FIBAA.

With this new top ranking, the Entrepreneurial ^School® emphatically confirms its excellent position in Austria, which is continuously confirmed by top evaluations in accreditations, surveys and rankings as well as awards (EU Commission, CHE University Comparison, MBA Round Table, Universum Survey, Campus of Excellence, etc.).

Univ. Prof. Dr. Kurt Matzler, academic director of the General Management Executive MBA: "Entrepreneurial thinking, decision-making and acting in international competition are the focus of this top-class MBA programme. The aim is to impart high-level, academically sound and at the same time practice-oriented further education for senior leadership and management positions and for mastering international challenges. A special asset is the modular structure, which makes it possible to tailor the MBA programme to the specific expectations and needs of working executives."Susanne Herzog, Head of MCI Executive Education: "In addition to our modular General Management Executive MBA, we have been offering the English-language International Business MBA programme for the past three years, which is designed as an online programme with supplementary, compact attendance phases and offers the greatest possible flexibility in terms of time and location. The target group is managers with an international background. This MBA programme can optionally be combined with a double degree at the renowned Canadian Royal Roads University.
