New Ranking Names Top International School for US MBA Students

LONDON, March 26 /PRNewswire/ -- HEC in France has been voted the top
business school outside the USA for the teaching of marketing by over 19,000
business school students in the latest survey by The Princeton Review. The
school was one of only two non-US schools to feature in the complete ranking,
which also covered subjects such as general and global management, finance
and accounting, and operations.
The survey, which involves 296 schools around the world asked students
how well they felt their school equipped them to succeed in each of the
specified areas on a five point scale. In the marketing category HEC was
ranked alongside such major US players as Harvard, Fuqua, Kellogg and
Berkeley Haas.
"The US has so many great business schools that it's really gratifying to
get this sort of recognition from students," says Valerie Gauthier, associate
dean, HEC Paris. "What we aim to do at HEC is to combine the world-class
research of professors like Kapferer, Dalsace, Ulaga, Czellar and Bastien
with the experiences of business leaders who come into the classroom to
confront students with the reality of what works and what doesn't on the
'front line'. We also get them involved in one of over fifty major marketing
projects we run here every year, some of which lead on to the creation of new
businesses. It's this intensity of experience that so well prepares our MBA
students for the challenges and opportunities they'll face after graduation."
