YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

It might sound like old news, but it’s not: The Stanford Graduate School of Business is again No. 1 in the US in our annual ranking of full-time MBA programs. GSB dominates in two of our five key indexes—coming in first in networking and entrepreneurship. As technology, and especially artificial intelligence, is a priority for graduating MBAs, schools most identified with emerging tech continue to rule the Best B-Schools lists.

And yet for many schools today, GSB included, the business of business education faces more challenges than ever. At MBA programs boasting median base starting salaries of at least $140,000, this year’s grads struggled more than last year’s to find work within three months of completing their program. Only two schools—Columbia and the University of Washington’s Foster—improved on this count versus 2024, according to data from the MBA Career Services & Employer Alliance, an association for career-services professionals that tracks and reports on MBA job trends. Emory’s Goizueta (No. 16 in the US ranking) saw 79% of graduates accept a job offer within 90 days of graduation, compared with 96% of 2024 graduates. As our return-on-investment analysis shows, postgraduation salaries have stagnated, rising only 1.7% from a year ago.
