THE SCHOOL PLACES 5TH IN THE 2017 RANKING OF THE BEST INTERNATIONAL 1-YEAR MBA PROGRAMS, BASED ON RETURN ON INVESTMENT

An effort that really pays off. Valued for its return on investment, SDA Bocconi School of Management's MBA is ranked as the fifth best 1-year program in the world (among non-US business schools) according to Forbes, which has published its bi-annual ranking of the best MBA programs. SDA Bocconi is also the only Italian business school present in all the most important international rankings.

The ranking is based on the sole criteria of return on investment that graduates have obtained in the five years after their MBA (i.e. the improvement in salary that graduates realize minus the cost of the program and the salary lost during studies). The ranking is drawn up on the basis of a survey of 2012  graduates from over 100 top business schools all over the world.

Among the 1-year non-US programs in the ranking, SDA Bocconi’s MBA also has the best years-to-payback ratio in the world.
