LinkedIn Names Schulich Among World’s Top MBA Programs for Career Success
The Schulich School of Business has earned a place among the world’s top MBA programs for career success in LinkedIn’s 2026 global ranking, continuing a three-year streak of recognition.
Schulich ranked 75th globally in this year’s list of 100 leading MBA programs. Stanford took the top spot, followed by Harvard and Wharton.
Now in its third year, LinkedIn’s MBA ranking draws on data from the platform’s more than one billion members worldwide to examine how well full-time MBA programs prepare graduates to build successful careers. Programs are evaluated across five areas: job placement, career advancement, network strength, leadership potential and gender diversity.
The ranking also provides insight into the professional paths of MBA graduates. LinkedIn reports that MBA graduates make twice as many connections as the average professional and represent a growing proportion of leadership hires.
“What sets the LinkedIn ranking apart is its unmatched, data-driven focus on real career outcomes,” said Detlev Zwick, Dean of the Schulich School of Business and Tanna H. Schulich Chair in Digital Marketing Strategy. “It offers a clear and credible measure of how MBA graduates are succeeding in today’s job market. This year’s ranking results once again underscore the exceptional career outcomes of Schulich MBA graduates and the strength of the Schulich MBA experience.”
LinkedIn data shows that Schulich alumni most commonly build careers in business development, finance, operations, sales and marketing. Toronto is the leading city for Schulich alumni, followed by Vancouver and Montreal.
Schulich’s latest showing marks the third consecutive year the School has been included in LinkedIn’s ranking of the world’s top 100 MBA programs.
