EMLV Reaches Third Place In Lefigaro’s Business Schools Rankings

EMLV climbed one place on the latest Lefigaro’s rankings released last November 22nd, ascending from fourth place to third place in France’s best post-baccalaureate business programs.

The first set of league tables of business schools for the 2021-2022 academic year gave its verdict on France’s top-ranked business schools: EMLV joins the top tier of “post-bac” business schools, according to Lefigaro.

EMLV is ranked third among the 14 post-baccalaureate business schools and gains one place in the global ranking list of the 38 schools awarding a Master’s degree, reaching 19th place.

Lefigaro’s ranking places great emphasis on the corporate relations that the school fosters with its partners. That’s an excellent opportunity for its graduates, who are “hired by top banks and consulting firms such as BNP Paribas, Société Générale, BPCE, Ernst & Young and Deloitte,” said Lefigaro.

For this year’s edition, the EMLV is ranked third in the post-bac ranking, with a score of 15.1 out of 20.

To rank the schools, Le Figaro values academic excellence, international exposure and corporate links:

• Academic excellence combines several criteria: international accreditations and the duration of the Master’s degree, the school’s research, the rate of very high-level teachers, the average baccalaureate score of incoming students, and the student-teacher ratio.
• International reputation: the number of professors with international degrees, the percentage of foreign graduates, the number of partnerships, performance in international rankings such as the Financial Times and the Shanghai ranking.
• Relations with companies, measured by the level of salaries after graduation, student recruitment within large companies, partnerships with large companies, and visibility on networks such as Linkedin. 

🥉 Premier classement de la saison pour @emlvparis et un podium !

Corporate relations, a jackpot for EMLV

After graduating from a top business school, many young grads dream of finding a job in a Big Four company. It’s a dream that often comes true for many EMLV graduates. This is made possible by the school’s partnerships with large accounting firms and many attractive companies for young people, such as those ranked at the top of Universum rankings.

To better meet the expectations of its partner companies, EMLV regularly involves them in its pedagogical programs through the development committees organized each year.

EMLV corporate partners can communicate their internship, work-study, and job offers directly to students’ e-mail addresses and via the Pole Leonard de Vinci virtual campus. In addition, they can promote their employer brand by hosting lectures and conferences with experts in the field.

Various recruitment events such as the Career Fair, the work-study forum and the alumni forum allow students to engage with companies, whatever the specialization they choose for their Master’s degree.
