London Business School

London Business School (LBS) is an international business school and a constituent college of the federal University of London, located in central London, England, United Kingdom, beside Regent's Park. LBS teaches postgraduate programmes in finance and management, in addition to its flagship Master of Business Administration (MBA and EMBA) programme. It also offers the Sloan Fellowship Programme for experienced business executives, a Masters in Finance (also known as MiF, a finance specialist programme), a Masters in Management for students with less than a year's work experience, a PhD, as well as non-masters programmes for business executives.

It was established in 1964, after the Franks Report recommended the establishment of two business schools, as part of existing universities (London Business School and Manchester Business School), but with considerable autonomy.[2] It has close collaborations with the nearby University College London and the Modern Language Centre at King's College London. In December 2006 launched its operations in Dubai, which include an executive MBA degree and Executive Education programmes.

LBS is ranked among the top business schools in Europe, and among the top 10 business schools in the world. In 2011, London Business School was ranked number one in the world for its MBA programme by the Financial Times for the third year in a row.[3] In 2009 the school shared this ranking with The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. The school's admissions process is highly selective, making it one of the most competitive business schools in the world. A high GPA, high GMAT score, and strong non-quantitative credentials are typically prerequisites to admission. Successful applicants for the full-time MBA have an average GMAT score of 701.

Over 1,000 degree students from 130 countries graduate from the School each year. A further 3,000-plus executives attend the School executive education programmes each year. The School has over 33,000 alumni in more than 120 countries, organised through 65-plus alumni clubs.[4]

London Business School holds the European Foundation for Management Development Equis accreditation as well as that of the AACSB. The MBA and Sloan Fellowship MSc programmes are accredited through AMBA.


CAMPUS:

The LBS campus is located in Marylebone, on the perimeter of Regent's Park and a short walk from Baker Street underground station. The main building, projected by John Nash along with the entire area of Regents Park, was originally built as 26 terraced houses in 1822-23.[citation needed] There are ten pointed cupolas along the roofline. The façade is adorned with Corinthian columns.

LBS maintains a number of facilities, including a sports centre, a restaurant, two cafes and library, that are dedicated for the exclusive use of its community. A privately run pub is also attached to campus. Most classrooms for the MBA are located in the Sainsbury Wing, the centre of the terrance, most of which are 100-student amphitheatre rooms with approximately five rows in a semicircle.

There is no accommodation on campus for students in full-time programmes, although there are rooms on-campus for visiting faculty and executive education participants. Most students choose to live in nearby private residential buildings or in students halls of residence such as the International Students House, London.
