Economics subject has also retained 8th rank in the UK and consequently, becomes 2nd in Scotland. Business and Management Studies has moved up two places on last year and is now ranked 6th in the UK.
On this occasion, Professor David Hillier, Associate Principal & Executive Dean, Strathclyde Business School, stated, “This is an absolutely wonderful showing during a year that has undoubtedly been a most challenging one in many ways due to the Covid 19 pandemic.” He added, “We are delighted to have continued success in these rankings as a University. From the business school perspective, I couldn’t be more proud to have four of our subjects listed in the top 10 with a top spot for Accounting and Finance.” He added.
On his part, Professor Sir Jim McDonald, Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Strathclyde, said: “I am delighted to see Strathclyde rise up the tables in the latest Complete University Guide, with some excellent increases in a number of subject areas. This reflects the commitment of our staff to our Strategic Vision 2025 and the provision of a first-class education and experience for our students.”
Dr. Ahmed Al Shaikh, BIBF Director extended his warmest congratulations to the Strathclyde team on this outstanding achievement, stating, “The BIBF continuously strives to provide internationally-recognised education that matches local and regional business standards, and for the past 26 years, the Strathclyde MBA has been the executive programme of choice for business leaders in Bahrain.
