The Quantitative Research Network for Worldwide Rankings (QRNW) has officially published the Best Business Schools 2026 Ranking, highlighting leading institutions in business and management education worldwide. The ranking is distinguished by its credibility, independence, and transparency, qualities that reflect QRNW’s roots in Switzerland’s tradition of quality and neutrality.
QRNW has operated as a non-profit body since 2013, with the aim of providing reliable, merit-based evaluations of academic institutions. Over the past decade, it has become a trusted source for students, universities, and employers seeking independent and meaningful insights into the global higher education landscape.
Swiss-Based, Globally Respected
QRNW is managed as an independent office under the European Council of Leading Business Schools (ECLBS)—a non-profit quality assurance network that champions excellence in academic standards. ECLBS is a proud member of:
IREG Observatory on Academic Ranking and Excellence
CHEA International Quality Group (CIQG)
INQAAHE – International Network for Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education
With a strong foundation in Swiss academic values, QRNW’s rankings are free from commercial influence, focusing exclusively on performance, quality, and integrity.
What Makes QRNW Rankings Unique
Unlike commercial rankings driven by advertising and institutional fees, QRNW remains fully independent and does not charge institutions for ranking or inclusion. All evaluations are based on:
Publicly verifiable data
Third-party accreditation
Sustainable development alignment
Digital innovation and transformation
Graduate employability and international outlook
Each institution is ranked strictly based on merit, academic impact, and real-world relevance—ensuring a level playing field for both established and emerging institutions.
A Truly Global Perspective
The 2026 edition features institutions from more than 50 countries across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. This year’s methodology placed additional focus on schools that have successfully integrated hybrid learning, digital platforms, and AI-enhanced teaching into their business programs.
Swiss institutions and Swiss-accredited schools abroad continue to perform well in QRNW rankings, a testament to Switzerland’s long-standing reputation for excellence in education and innovation.
Supporting Students and Institutions Worldwide
QRNW is more than just a ranking system—it’s a mission-driven initiative that contributes to educational transparency, student choice, and institutional development. Since its founding in 2013, QRNW has helped thousands of students identify programs that align with their goals, values, and career ambitions.
Institutions interested in future ranking participation are welcome to engage with QRNW. There are no registration fees or promotional packages—only an invitation to demonstrate real performance and quality.
