On the Financial Times' ranking of European business schools NHH climbed 10 places to 47th place on the main rankings for 2008. "Gratifying", says rector Haaland.

"It is very gratifying that we are moving upward on the list. This is due to the fact that we have maintained our standing in the increasingly competitive Master of Management ranking which was published this Fall and simultaneously because NHH is represented in more Financial Times rankings this year than earlier," says NHH rector Jan I. Haaland to Paraplyen.

The main rankings are based on five separate rankings; NHH is represented in three of these: Masters in Management, Open Programs, and Custom Programs (executive education).

"If an institution is present within all 5 rankings it will have 100% total weighting on the different rankings, but if it is just present within one ranking, it will be pulled down a little in the weightings," explains marketing manager James Hosea.

It is therefore an advantage to be present within as many rankings as possible and this is also one of the reasons that NHH has climbed (last year NHH was only represented in one ranking category).

HEC Paris, London Business School, and Insead are the top three ranked business schools. Of the other Nordic schools, Stockholm School of Economics earned 15th place, Helsinki School of Economics 17th place, Copenhagen Business School 37th place, and BI Norwegian School of Management 53rd place.
