We’re proud to announce we have again been ranked in the UK Top Ten by the Financial Times.

The FT’s European Business School Ranking 2024 lists the best business schools in Europe based on the combined performance of programme-specific FT rankings including the MBA and MSc Management. 

Our School ranked 10th in the UK and 58th overall in Europe – in an increasingly competitive market we maintained our UK standing and slipped one place over last year’s ranking. This follows a jump from 66th in 2022.  

Durham’s position was determined by the 2024 Financial Times rankings for MBA programmes and MSc Management programmes. The School’s flagship programme, the Durham MBA (Full-time) ranked 26th in Europe (8th in the UK, 78th in the world) and alumni from the programme secured an average salary of $120,000 three years after graduating, and see an average salary increase of 89% - which is the sixth-highest of all UK business schools.   

Executive Dean of Durham University Business School, Professor Cathy Cassell, said: 

“Durham University Business School’s programmes are all taught and delivered by world-class and internationally-diverse faculty. The FT’s survey places us 6th in the UK for faculty diversity and 18th in Europe. Their leading research underpins the learning experienced by our students and positions us in the FT’s Global Top 100 Aggregated Research Ranking. This goes to show the quality of all of our programmes, and the Business School generally.”
