Confirmation of Excellence

Warwick Business School has received further confirmation of its position as one of the world's top business schools from the Financial Times Executive Education survey.

Following the recent Financial Times MBA survey of business schools where Warwick Business School was placed 4th in the UK and 40th in the world, the FT have placed WBS 4th in the UK and 26th in the world in their 2001 survey of Executive Education.

The comprehensive survey, which looks at a range of issues from course design and value for money to food and accommodation was published on 4th June 2001.

Dean Howard Thomas of Warwick Business School said, " I am not surprised at this confirmation of our excellence. We have first-class facilities and our teaching, research and support staff are amongst the highest quality that I have ever worked with. We are continuing to invest in our facilities with a new £7 million extension to the business school, due for completion by the end of the year. I also have to say that our close links with business and industry ensure that our teaching is both current and relevant."

Ms Leoni Antoniazzi, Director of Executive Courses added, "I am sure that the relationships that we have built with our corporate clients have significantly contributed to this excellent result and I would like to thank them for their co-operation in this survey."
