QS Distance Online MBA 2019 Rankings published today the School’s executive programme up by 13 places in one year

 

 

“Another great recognition confirming the excellence of the School of Management for its work in developing digital solutions that support education” (Andrea Sianesi and Federico Frattini).
The future is FLEXA, our continuous learning platform geared to artificial intelligence

A world top ten place in distance learning Executive MBAs for Flex EMBA at MIP Politecnico di Milano Graduate School of Business. The only Italian programme listed has climbed 13 places in the global ranking and is now seventh in the world, according to the newly issued QS Distance/Online MBA 2019 Rankings, which measure performance for the best distance learning MBAs.

The Business School of Politecnico di Milano has always held an excellent position in rankings that consider – as QS does – the participants’ experience throughout the course and the quality of faculty. And in this ranking, our FLEX EMBA is placed first in the world for “Class Experience” and second for “Faculty and Teaching

Flex EMBA is a blended teaching course that uses an ad hoc platform developed in partnership with Microsoft. In 2016, AMBA (Association of MBAs) placed it among the most innovative MBAs in the world. Since 2017, the course holds EOOCS certification from EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development) the body certifying online programme quality, the first executive programme in Italy to receive this accreditation and one of the first in absolute terms.

We are proud of this excellent result”, say Andrea Sianesi and Federico Frattini, MIP’s Dean and Director of MBA and Executive MBA Programmes, respectively. “Because of this and our growing numbers (with nearly 400 students taking the Italian or the International course since 2014), Flex EMBA is the School’s most successful programme of the past ten years. Our objective was achieved through our efforts to continuously improve the programme and to extend the international dimension of its curriculum. Once again, we see the validity of our online education being rewarded. From 2013, MIP Politecnico di Milano has invested heavily on applying digital technologies to education and providing programmes that offer superb usability and accessibility, while always ensuring high quality teaching and a personalised learning experience.

The many recognitions rewarding the value of our Flex EMBA only confirm the excellence of MIP in developing digital solutions to support education. Five years ago, we were the first in Italy to believe in a digital MBA for executives, so much so that two years later we added an international programme, i-Flex. Today, we have placed another piece in the jigsaw. From December 2018, MIP students can access FLEXA services on this innovative platform developed in partnership with Microsoft. The system uses artificial intelligence to offer an array of services such as skill assessment, personalised and continuous learning and a revolutionary e-tutor to help students fill in any gaps and achieve their professional targets”.

 

Financial Times Executive Education Rankings 2019

Executive Education Courses for individuals and companies: Politecnico di Milano’s School of Management among the top 80 business schools in the world and one of the best in Europe with strong ties to a technical university.

The School of Management of Politecnico di Milano offers a wide range of programmes of the highest standard to its executive customers.

This is underlined, again this year, by the Executive Education Rankings for 2019 published today in the Financial Times, listing the School among the top 80 business schools in the world. The Schools is also ranked among the best schools in Europe that belong to a “technical” university, where this focus on engineering and technology brings together a propensity for innovation with management skills.

The Financial Times lists up two different rankings for executive programmes. One is for “customised” programmes, which address the specific needs of corporate customers and designed for their managers and high potential staff. Politecnico di Milano’s School of Management is appearing for the ninth consecutive year and has improved its position in a list that has been shortened by ten places.

The other is for “open” programmes for all managers and professionals wishing to select the training for their professional and personal development independently within the courses offered at MIP’s Management Academy. SoM first entered the ranking two years ago, and now is placed among the “top ten” European technical universities.

Many parameters come into play to determine each position in the ranking (they include the role of companies in designing and evaluating the courses and the School’s international outlook) and they take into account the participants’ rating of the courses, alongside the assessment of the CEOs and HR Directors at the companies benefitting from the courses. This year, the School of Management, stood out in particular for its close partnership with other business schools.

In the words of Andrea Sianesi, Dean of MIP Politecnico di Milano and Alessandro Perego, Director of the Department of Management Engineering: “Our executive programmes are in line with the market expectations, in a climate eagerly anticipating new training methods that open minds to the sweeping opportunities offered through advances in technology and business models.  The market recognises that we have the competence and methodology, which are such distinctive features of Politecnico, to identify the latest trends and prepare managers to take on the process of digital transformation in their companies, redefining corporate processes and roles”.

They continued by saying: “By operating so closely with the corporate world and focusing on business and entrepreneurial topics, we have earned our stripes in the minds of companies and managers”. Another winning factor was venturing into digital learning. In the smart learning model, people can access courses and material at a distance, a great plus point for those with busy lives and difficulties linked to time management”.

Politecnico di Milano: School of Management’s Executive MBAs among top 50 in the world

School up 10 places in the QS Global EMBA Rankings 2019 from 2018 – despite stiff and greater competition.  Up also in Europe: the School is 23rd out of 55 (from 26th out of 49)

The School has a great reputation among companies, and this creates real opportunities for our students to advance rapidly in their careers – professionally and in terms of income; its teaching body and facilities are excellent; it has concrete equal opportunity policies. These are some of the distinctive factors behind the success of the Executive MBAs at the School of Management of Politecnico di Milano. Up by ten places in one year in the QS Global EMBA Rankings 2019, this underlines their place among the best 50 in the world.

In its second year, this ranking identifies the best 134 MBAs for company executives across the world (119 in 2018). In Europe, the ranking lists 55 programmes (up from 49) and the School has climbed from 26th to 23rd.

QS Global EMBA Rankings 2019 examines a series of aspects relating to each EMBA programme, looking at them through the eyes of their students. This classification goes beyond simply considering the programme’s effect on the students’ careers or its reputation within companies, which are certainly of prime importance. It also explores how each class is composed, looking at diversity and professional experience.

In the words of Federico Frattini, MBA and EMBA Programme Director: “Gaining ten places in one year is an unmistakable signal that we are responding well to the needs of our executive students and the demands of companies – where our reputation continues to grow. Our massive effort to innovate our products, renewing their content and expanding our use of digital learning is clearly proving more than successful”.

Listed in the international rankings since 2009, this year the School of Management of Politecnico di Milano has cemented its place among the top flyers with wide selection of products:

SoM consists of the Department of Management Engineering and MIP, the University’s Business School. Alessandro Perego, Director of the Department of Management Engineering, and Andrea Sianesi, MIP’s Dean, expressed their positive feelings: “We are proud that FT is placing us again among the leading schools in Europe, underlining the value of our policies. This recognition is not only a reward for us but, more importantly, for our students and corporate customers, who continue to appreciate the breadth of our educational offer, its quality and innovative direction”.

They continued by saying: “Our offer is both complete and comprehensive, as reflected in our high ranking for courses and Master programmes that target executives and professionals, young graduates and companies. On top of this, the FT assessment criteria include the career perspectives for students and professionals and their excellent opinion of teachers and courses, as well as the School’s ever increasing international outlook, all aspects that are dear to us and on which we have built our offer”.
