Data is collected from the long-standing QS Global Employer Survey, QS Business School Survey and Elsevier’s Scopus database, the world’s largest repository of academic journal data.
Methodology

Career Placements is represented by a score that combines insights on the percent of graduates from an MBA program going into a relevant industry, function or starting their own business. This is balanced by an absolute placement score, which balances class size against the proportional outcome statistics.The employment outcome data conforms to the MBA Career Services & Employer Alliance (CSEA), Standards Edition VI, for reporting MBA employment statistics. The employment information includes all students who graduated in the 12 months ending in June 30. This category aims to measure the career outcomes of respective specializations in the business schools ranked.

- Employer Reputation is derived from responses to the last five years of our prestigious QS Global Employer Survey, with the most recent years weighted higher. Our Employer Reputation metric is based on almost 37,000 responses to our QS Employer Survey and asks employers to identify those institutions from which they source the most competent, innovative, effective graduates. Our survey responses quantify the importance of various MBA specializations and skillsets, as well as the relevance of specific functions in the hiring process. This category measures the employer reputation of specific business schools based on how important a given specialization is to the company in question.
