In its first year in the QS Masters in Management Rankings, EGADE Business School's Master in Business Management (MBM) leads in Mexico and Latin America and is ranked 40th in the world.

In the 2021 edition of the ranking, the program obtained its best scores in the graduate employability and career trajectory indicators, ranking 16th and 40th, respectively, among 148 evaluated master's degrees from 30 countries.

Eduardo Aguiñaga, national director of the MBM, attributed these results to the innovative approach of the program’s educational model, which incorporates an experiential learning methodology through corporate immersions in leading companies, as well as cutting-edge curricular content to develop comprehensive, competitive professionals with an international vision.

“Employers value the ability of MBM graduates to solve complex problems and to respond to the changing environment in a constructive way, as well as their leadership and strategic thinking, that contributes to their making informed decisions to achieve the strategic objectives of their organization in a sustainable way,” Aguiñaga explained.

The groups of indicators analyzed in the QS rankings are: graduates’ employability; the return on investment; graduates’ entrepreneurship and career trajectory; thought leadership; and the diversity of the community of students and professors.
