Dear partner,
We are delighted to let you know that Aston Business School has been awarded a further five years of re-accreditation by the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS), an internationally recognised accreditation body ensuring continuous improvement and quality within business schools.
This achievement consolidates Aston Business School’s position in the top one per cent of business schools that hold triple-crown accreditation from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), the Association of MBAs (AMBA) and EQUIS.
The accreditation of Aston Business School by EQUIS for a further five years reaffirms its status as an internationally leading
business school, with particular recognition for its strengths in terms
of societal engagement, entrepreneurship and innovation.
This
is an excellent outcome and recognises our commitment to the provision
of the highest quality education and research. As part of Aston
University’s 2030 strategy, engagement with industry and research forms a
core element of what we do, with professional practice embedded in our
taught provision. It is particularly pleasing that the panel noted our strong focus on employability in its report.
Earlier this year, Aston University joined the top 10% of universities in the world in the QS World University Rankings 2025 and reached 65th in the world and 24th in Europe in the QS Online MBA Rankings which highlight the best online MBA programmes across the world. It also rose to 66th in the world in the QS World Rankings by Subject for business and management studies.
