“This ranking continues to highlight UCD Smurfit School’s enduring status as one of an elite group of global business educators.”
French school Insead, which has campuses near Paris and in Singapore, rose from 18th place in 2023 to take the top position in the list this year.
It overtakes past winners HEC Paris and London Business School, which were pushed into second and third place respectively.
