Le Figaro 2021 ranking of “Grande Ecole”  business schools: KEDGE moves up one spot to become 8th in the journal’s ranking

Le Figaro’s ranking of business schools is a benchmark list that ranks targeted French business schools that offer master degree programmes. In compiling its list, Le Figaro analyses several characteristics, such as the quality of its research, the number of professors, its international influence, professional integration, and international rankings.

"I am proud of KEDGE's place in top rankings such as Le Figaro, especially as it has been steadily strengthening over the last few years. Advancing one place in this year’s rankings is the result of the daily hard work and commitment of all our teams. They all work together to deliver a high-quality programme and to ensure that students receive not only an excellent education but that they are also highly employable," declared Alexandre de Navailles, Director General of KEDGE.

KEDGE's climb in the rankings is based on its academic excellence, which is driven by active research and an ever-increasing number of publications, as well as its high-level faculty who hold degrees from universities of excellence.

On the corporate relations side, the salaries earned by our Grande Ecole Programme graduates (upon graduation and up to three years afterwards) and the reputation of the companies that recruit them (which are amongst the most attractive in France) are some of the school’s strong qualities which were underscored in the ranking. 

KEDGE's international strategy is also a large factor in the school's good placement in the ranking. A number of our professors hold PhDs abroad, and the school is attracting more and more international students. The prestige of KEDGE’s partner universities, the majority of which are accredited, also makes the difference in the ranking.
