L’Etudiant’s 2025 ranking: SKEMA Enters the Top 5
SKEMA Business School has made a breakthrough in L’Etudiant's 2025 ranking of business schools, securing 5th place among the best post-preparatory management schools. This is an impressive achievement for its Grande École programme, reaffirming its position among the very top institutions.
Out of the 37 schools evaluated, SKEMA even ranks 1st in terms of internationalisation, a crucial criterion, and also shines by placing 3rd for academic excellence. This ranking highlights the strengths of SKEMA’s Grande École programme: an exceptional international footprint, with nine campuses across France and around the world, academic partners in 54 countries, high-calibre professors, a strong student-to-faculty ratio, and an unparalleled multicultural experience for students. SKEMA’s academic excellence is equally noteworthy. Ranking 3rd in this category, the school demonstrates the recognition of its prestigious international accreditations (EQUIS, AACSB, EFMD Accredited), alongside the DD&RS label, which rewards its commitment to sustainable development and social responsibility.
In the article, L’Etudiant also features comments from Patrice Houdayer, Director of Programmes, International Affairs, and Student Life at SKEMA. He emphasises the diversity of student profiles the school welcomes: “In the first year of the Grande École programme, 10% of admitted students come from a law background. We also have students from AES, sciences, and biology streams. This disciplinary diversity enriches our courses and adds real value,” he explains.
