CATÓLICA-LISBON rises again in rankings and is the #27 best European Business School

Católica Lisbon School of Business & Economics rises again in the Financial Times Global Rankings, standing out among the best European Business Schools, ascending to the 27th position.

“We are proud to be consistently climbing the ranking of the best European Business Schools and to give prestige to Portugal as one of the most international schools in Europe. Being highlighted by the Financial Times as one of the top schools in Europe since 2007 is a source of great satisfaction for us,” highlights Filipe Santos, Dean of CATÓLICA-LISBON.

This ranking also highlights the position of the Master in Management in the European Top 25. These results are due to the exceptional talent of the students it attracts, but also to the quality and diversity of its faculty, which is reflected in the quality of the Programs offered, the strong connection to the corporate world for executive training and the excellent rates of employability, salary and career progression of its graduates.

CATÓLICA-LISBON was the first Business School in Portugal to be part of this Financial Times ranking in 2007, and has obtained top positions since 2012.

This year, in addition to the rise in the School's overall position, it is worth noting that the school's Executive Education programs are the 12th best in Europe.
