Bocconi and SDA Bocconi end the year on a positive note, by entering all international rankings of top business schools and placing itself in the 11th position of the Financial Times ranking of European business schools.

The overall good score is due to the good positioning in detailed FT rankings. Among these, the Bocconi Master of science in International Management has climbed three positions, being ranked as the 23rd in the world among Masters in Management. In executive education ranking, SDA Bocconi School of Management has jumped by six positions, reaching the 25th place in the world and the 11th in Europe.

"Bocconi's international reputation is once more confirmed by 2012 rankings", says Stefano Caselli, Vice Rector for Internationalization of the university headquartered in via Sarfatti. "In the FT ranking we have gained 19 positions since 2006, going from 30th to 11th best business school in Europe. Although we inched back with respect to last year, the medium-term trend stays solidly positive".

SDA Bocconi is the only Italian business school which is included in major international rankings. For instance, the SDA Bocconi MBA has climbed two positions this year, and is now ranked 16th by Bloomberg Businessweek among MBA programs offered outside the US.
