QS Ranking: WHU’s MBA Program Places #57 Worldwide

In the recent 2026Global MBA Ranking, published by renowned university analyst Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), the MBA Program offered by WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management has placed #57 worldwide out of 390 MBA programs.

Having earned 66.9 out of a possible 100 points, WHU’s MBA stands above the average for all business schools in four of five categories.

“Our MBA brings out the full potential of our budding managers,” noted Professor Christian Andres, Dean of WHU. “That we have maintained such a stable position internationally, even in the face of increased competition crowding the market, is exciting news. Our program promotes personal growth and offers tailor-made, practice-oriented content, as well as the chance to work together with other highly motivated top managers from all over the world.”

QS’s evaluation of the school concludes that the “value for money” category is one of WHU’s clearest strong points. In fact, no other university ranked higher than WHU in this category. The strong ranking in the “Employability” category (#65), which is based primarily on a global survey of various employers, underscores the fact that graduates of WHU's MBA program are in demand worldwide. Nevertheless, the program has room for potential as it pertains to the “diversity” category.
