Financial Times European Business School Ranking 2025
This year’s ranking by the international business newspaper, the Financial Times, recognizes the ZHAW School of Management and Law (SML) for the sixth time in a row.
The Financial Times rankings are based on annual surveys of business schools and their graduates. Criteria such as career development, graduates’ salaries, labor-market skills, and internationality are all taken into account. This year, five universities in Switzerland are listed among the Top 100 European Business Schools.

“The SML’s ongoing inclusion in the Financial Times Top 100 European Business Schools is a special recognition for us. It confirms how consistently we achieve excellence in our degree programs, executive education, and scientific research.”
Prof. Reto Steiner, Dean of the School of Management and Law
