<p>As for the Business school, lets have a look:</p>

<p>The Financial Times, # 16 in the World
[Business</a> school rankings and MBA rankings from the Financial Times](<a href=“http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/global-mba-rankings]Business”>http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/global-mba-rankings)</p>

<p>The Economist, #11 in the World
[Which</a> MBA](<a href=“WhichMBA?”>WhichMBA?)</p>

<p>The Financial Times EMBA rankings, #2 in the World, and always in the top 3 the past 5 years.
[Business</a> school rankings and MBA rankings from the Financial Times](<a href=“http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/emba-rankings]Business”>http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/emba-rankings)</p>

<p>Every single department within the School is ranked top 30 in the World as per research output in the most prestigious journals. Those stats are for a school thats only 20 years old, where will they be in 5, 10 years? only moving up…</p>

<p>HKU once again, its a great school if you want to do law/medicine and there is always be demand in that area, but as far as the most promising careers are concerned you have to take HKUST over HKU.</p>

882

<p>ok… all your stats are about mba/emba and we all know that UST > HKU on those. We are going to study for undergrad dude…</p>

883

<p>i realize that and there arent any rankings for bba business, so you have to go by these, as its the same faculty teaching both.</p>

884

<p>wow, that’s my point. you can’t go by those stats but they are referring to mba/emba. You do realize that undergrad and grad vary greatly. How come I don’t see Mcintire is ranked #1 for graduate, since its undergrad is ranked #1? In fact, it’s not even close to 1.</p>

885

<p>i will take it further, everybody has an area which he/she wants to study… economics, engineering, whatever that might be. </p>

<p>what you do is find a ranking for that deparment and i will guarantee you that if that department is present at hkust and hku, 90% or higher of the time hkust will be higher.</p>

886

<p>in the end you are taught in the same department bba grad phd whatever. so there is a high positive correlation as to quality in each category.</p>

887

<p>for graduate study, that is.</p>

888

<p>you can’t prove anything by correlation, I am sure that you know that</p>

889

<p>no idont have a choice to go to usa , i have sumone livin in hk so it will be more convenient. I mean wen us students can study in hkust then why will not us recognize hkust degree. I heard from sumone on this froum that hkust degree is worldwide recognized. I mean atleast a bit more preference for mba if u graduate from the same uni.
Sumone pls ans my placement quest.
If I do UG+MBA from hkust and work in us or india or even hk wat kind of salaries can i expect in each country</p>

890

<p>you have to work few years before applying for MBA.</p>

891

<p>is it necessary to work , i think its necessary but most people work for a year or so for the job experience and do mba</p>

892

<p>what will you be studying? specifically</p>

893

<p>most probably Comp SC information engineering</p>

894

<p>i doubt 1 year is enough, maybe at HKU but HKUST Business is much more selective.</p>

895

<p>sdg1 what are you going to study?</p>

896

<p>then how much time one has to work.
R u a passout or goin to hkust or hku this year.
Do u know anythin bout placements. and salary
Offcours it will be selective its the topmost in ASIA</p>

897

<p>um… BEcon&Fin most likely</p>

898

<p>oh sorry, now i get what you meant by Mcintyre…</p>

<h1>1 undergrad, #16 mba</h1>

<p>University of Virginia (McIntire)

3 University of Pennsylvania (Wharton)
4 University of Michigan (Ross)

19 Carnegie Mellon (Tepper)
20 Indiana University (Kelley) </p>

<p>Only reliable ranking in my opinion is US News,and international ones. Business Week and Wall street journal seem to weigh their own survey criteria very highly resulting in a laughable rankings undergrad and mba</p>

899
