The FT E-MBA rankings are for universities that have been accredited by AACSB or EQUIS, which are international business education institutions. The evaluation criteria include ▲salary ▲salary increase ▲career progress ▲aims achieved ▲female faculty/students ▲international faculty/students and ▲FT research rank.

The ranking of KUBS E-MBA is noticeable because it has entered the Top 20 solely with its exclusive business program. While most high-ranked Asian universities run their program with partner universities in the United States or Europe, Korea University was able to rank 20^th with its exclusive program. Thus, KUBS has proven that its curriculum, which aims to develop students’ skills as CEOs by focusing on hands-on experiences, is one of the world’s best programs.
