Le Figaro Étudiant ranking of the best MBAs in France in 2026

18 Nov 2025

We are pleased to announce that our MBA programme has been recognised by Le Figaro Étudiant's 2026 ranking, placing 16th among the best generalist MBAs in France.


This ranking is based on two main criteria:

  • Academic recognition, which takes into account degrees, visas and RNCP titles, international accreditations, and admission requirements.
     
  • Reputation and career opportunities, assessed on the basis of positions obtained in the Financial Times, QS and LinkedIn rankings, as well as observed salary levels upon graduation.

This recognition is a tribute to the school's teaching methods and its mission to train responsible managers for a globalised environment:

  • Academic excellence, recognised in particular in July 2025 when IPAG Business School was awarded the prestigious AACSB international accreditation.
  • The commitment of our teaching teams and partners to supporting each learner in their pursuit of managerial, international or entrepreneurial roles.
  • Our desire to ensure that our MBA programme is globally oriented and impactful, in order to meet the expectations of a changing job market.


We would like to thank our students, alumni, lecturers, speakers and partner companies: it is thanks to them that this programme continues to progress.
