Strong performance across career and programme outcomes

The 2026 ranking also reflects SPJIMR’s performance across several dimensions of student and alumni experience, including career progression, career support, alumni engagement, programme value, and sustainability-focused learning.

The institute also recorded an overall satisfaction score of 9.6 out of 10, reflecting strong participant sentiment towards the programme experience.

Indian business schools gain greater representation globally

The FT MiM global ranking evaluates management programmes designed primarily for students with limited work experience. The ranking considers only business schools accredited by AACSB or EQUIS and assesses performance across criteria including alumni career progress, alumni networks, school diversity, international experience, research, ESG and net zero teaching, and careers service.

In 2026, 14 Indian business schools feature in the FT MiM global ranking, compared with 11 in 2025. The increase reflects the growing representation of Indian business schools in the international management education landscape.
