Executive MBA programmes by NUS, SMU moved up in Financial Times' global ranking

Unfortunately, Nanyang Business School's EMBA slipped on the list.

Executive MBA (EMBA) programmes being offered by two local universities in Singapore improved their rankings in the recently released Financial Times' 100 best EMBA programmes.

The National University of Singapore (NUS) Business School's Asia-Pacific EMBA programme rose to 17th from previously 25th.

Its double-degree Executive MBA programme with the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), however, slipped one spot to 5th.

The SMU Lee Kong Chian School of Business (LKCSB), meanwhile, has been ranked 32nd globally, up four places from 36th position last year.

This is the second time that LKCSB made the top 100, in only its second year of qualifying for the ranking, since its Executive MBA (EMBA) programme was set up five years ago.

NTU's Nanyang Business School's EMBA, however, slipped eight spots to occupy the 18th spot.

The programmes which made the list were assessed based on career progress of alumni, diversity of faculty and students, and faculty-related idea generation.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
