INTERNATIONAL ACCREDITATIONS AND RANKING

The university is highly appraised both in the Czech Republic and abroad. The Faculty of Business Administration (home faculty of the CEMS Programme) is EQUIS accredited, which ranks the faculty among the top 1% of business schools in the world. In August 2016, the Initial Accreditation Committee of AACSB (The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) accepted the Eligibility Application, thus allowing VŠE to enter the five-year business accreditation process.

VŠE is ranked by the Financial Times annually and has already been appraised for several years by the Eduniversal Ranking project as one of the best “business schools” in Central and Eastern Europe. Since 2013 VŠE has been also ranked in QS World University Rankings – one of the most prestigious international rankings of higher education institutions. Currently, the 800 best universities in the world are listed in the ranking (while according to some estimates, the total number of higher education institutions in the world amounts to 20 thousand) and VŠE is one of them.
