Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can any business schools participate in the FT rankings?
To be eligible to participate, a school should be accredited by AACSB or Equis; it must have a programme that has been running for at least four years; and it must have graduated its first class at least three years before the ranking publication date.
2. Which journals are included in the FT research rank?
The MBA, EMBA and Online MBA rankings include a research rank. This is calculated according to the number of faculty publications published in 50 academic and practitioner journals. Points are awarded to the business school at which the author is currently employed. The total is then weighted for faculty size. The full list of journals is available here: 50 journals
3. Which exchange rates does the FT use in its salary calculations?
The FT rankings use Purchasing Power Parity rates, published by the International Monetary Fund, rather than normal currency exchange rates. All salary data are converted into $US equivalents. Unlike conventional current rates, PPP conversion factors take into account the cost of living in the country where a currency is used.
