Le classement QS des meilleurs Masters in Management ou Programmes Grande École édition 2021 vient de sortir ! Cette année, 23 écoles de commerce françaises sont classées et ces dernières affichent même de belles progressions par rapport à 2020.
Parmi les dix meilleurs programmes classés par QS en 2021, le top 3 demeure identique à l’an passé et est fortement marqué par la présence d’établissements de l’Hexagone. À l’autre extrémité du top 10, une école française a fait son entrée à la 10e position après avoir grimpé de quatre places en un an !
La méthodologie du classement QS des meilleurs PGE
Ce classement s’intéresse particulièrement à toutes les formations en « business management ». En France, ce sont majoritairement les Programmes Grande École qui sont classés. Ils peuvent revêtir divers noms, comme MSc in Management, pour emlyon, ou Master in Management, qui est la dénomination internationale.
Concernant les critères qui permettent d’établir la note finale sur 100, ils sont au nombre de 5, mais n’ont pas le même poids dans la définition du score total.
La première catégorie est la rentabilité qui compte pour 20%. Ici, QS mesure le retour sur investissement entre le salaire de sortie sur 10 ans et les frais de scolarité (15%) et le temps que mettent les diplômés à rembourser ces mêmes frais (5%). Le site indique que la durée moyenne de remboursement est de 3,5 ans.
Le site spécialisé dans les classements s’intéresse également à la perception des écoles de commerce mondiales (15%). Pour ce faire, il se penche sur la réputation des programmes (10%), l’impact de la recherche (2,5%) et le pourcentage de professeurs qui affichent un PhD (2,5%).
Ensuite, QS regarde le taux d’employabilité des alumni (30 à 35%). Pour ce critère, QS interroge des employeurs pour connaître les écoles dans lesquelles ils vont chercher des étudiants pour les recruter par la suite. QS prend également en compte le taux d’embauche six mois après la diplomation.
Le critère diversité est également très important pour QS (10%) qui se penche sur le pourcentage de femmes parmi la population étudiante et au sein de la faculté, mais aussi la proportion d’élèves et de professeurs internationaux. Enfin, le dernier critère se focalise sur le salaire des alumni (15-20%).
Il important de noter que QS ne classe que les 100 meilleurs programmes, les autres sont indiqués comme 101+, principalement parce qu’il est impossible d’obtenir une note globale correcte, les écoles n’ayant pu remplir tous les critères nécessaires.
Les écoles françaises qui proposent les meilleurs PGE selon QS
Bien évidemment, les Parisiennes trustent le top 10 ; top 10 qui voit l’arrivée d’emlyon cette année. En effet, l’an passé, l’école n’était classée que 14e et gagne donc 4 places. SKEMA poursuit également son ascension dans les classements en affichant une belle remontée, passant ainsi de la 30e à la 23eposition en un an. De son côté, NEOMA grimpe de 10 places pour arriver 52e cette année.
Malgré tout, si le classement reste similaire à l’an passé pour les business schools de l’Hexagone, certaines affichent une légère baisse. Audencia perd 5 places, Montpellier 18 places.
Quelle école de commerce propose la meilleure rentabilité ?
Trois business schools se partagent la première place en termes de rentabilité avec 100 points. Il s’agit d’EU Business School (Suisse, Allemagne, Espagne), HEC Paris et D’Amore-McKim, l’école de commerce de Northeastern University (Boston).
Cependant, si HEC Paris affiche également 100/100 sur le critère des revenus des alumni, ce n’est pas le cas des autres établissements cités juste au-dessus. En effet, seules l’école jovacienne et la London Business School peuvent se targuer d’être à la première place sur ce critère.
La diversité dans les écoles de commerce
Sujet de plus en plus prégnant dans le débat public, la diversité tant sur le plan des nationalités qu’en termes de représentativité des femmes est importante. Grosse surprise, les écoles françaises font mieux que leurs homologues étrangères. Dans le top 10 des business schools qui font la part belle à la diversité, 9 établissements sont français. On retrouve ainsi, dans l’ordre : Excelia Business School, ICN, SKEMA, TBS, NEOMA, IESEG, Montpellier Business School, Audencia, EU Business School et GEM.
Le top 3 des meilleurs Programmes Grande École en 2021
En troisième position, on retrouve, comme l’an passé, l’ESSEC et son MSc in Strategy & Management of International Business avec un score total de 92,4. Parmi les points forts de l’école, on note la rentabilité (99,4), mais aussi le salaire des alumni (98,1).
En deuxième position se situe London Business School, habituée du podium. Sa note globale est de 95,3 et elle affiche de très bons résultats en matière de perception (98,6) et de salaire des alumni (100).
Enfin, en première place est de nouveau trustée par HEC Paris. L’école a obtenu une note de 95,5 et obtient se distingue sur les critères de rentabilité (100), de perception (100), du salaire des alumni (100) et d’employabilité (98,5). En revanche, la business school pêche sur le plan de la diversité (60,4).
