We are delighted to confirm that the latest Times Higher Education and Wall Street Journal business rankings have placed three Lancaster University Management School postgraduate programmes in the global top 20.

The full-time Lancaster MBA programme and the Masters in Management were both ranked 13th in the world, and the Masters in Finance programme was ranked 18th in the world.

A unique set of performance data was collected from business schools across the world, comparing a range of factors including student engagement, teaching excellence and student outcomes. The results clearly demonstrate the strength and quality of our flagship postgraduate programmes, and this is testament to the dedication of our programme teams, and the excellent achievements of our students.

Professor Mark Shackleton, Associate Dean for Postgraduate Studies, said: “Many congratulations to Lancaster University Alumni from 2012-2015 who studied on the MBA, Masters in Management and Masters in Finance programmes. This week’s exceptional result ranks all three programmes in the world’s top 20 programmes for vocational outcomes, careers and institutional support, and LUMS is well placed to continue its successes in future rankings.”
