FT公佈年全球MBA最新排名大綱

The earning power of alumni from Stanford Graduate School of Business has propelled it to the top of the Financial Times Global MBA rankings for the first time.

斯坦福大學商學院(Stanford Graduate School of Business)憑藉其畢業生的賺錢能力，首次榮登英國《金融時報》全球商學院排名的榜首（點擊這裏查看完整排名）。

The California school knocked London Business School and the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, the 2011 joint winners, from the number one slot.

位於加州帕羅奧多的斯坦福商學院，擊敗了2011年的並列冠軍——倫敦商學院(London Business School)和賓夕法尼亞大學沃頓商學院(Wharton business school)，奪得了今年的冠軍頭銜。

Stanford's breakthrough sees the Palo Alto school become only the fourth institution to take the number one slot in the annual FT ranking since its inception in 1999.

斯坦福商學院今年實現了重大突破，成爲英國《金融時報》年度商學院排名自1999年創立以來的第四家冠軍院校。

The FT rankings compile data across 20 different categories, including the international outlook of the school, research and ideas generation, and the success of graduates from the 100 ranked full-time MBA programmes. Stanford has increasingly dominated the category for the average salaries earned by alumni three years after graduation, and alumni have reported the highest post-MBA salaries for the past six years.

英國《金融時報》商學院排名的編纂涉及20個不同類別的數據，包括學校的國際前景、研究和思想成果、排名前100的全日制MBA項目畢業生的成就。在畢業三年後的平均工資這個類別上，斯坦福大學商學院的優勢越來越明顯，且據校友報道，該院MBA畢業生平均薪資過去6年來都是最高的。

This year, the figure, compiled over three years, stands at $191,657, nearly $14,000 more than the alumni of Stanford's nearest rival, Harvard Business School, which topped the FT rankings in 1999 and 2000. The rise of Stanford to the top of the league, at the expense of LBS, which dropped to number four this year, mirrors a more general trend in this year's table, in which US schools have reasserted their supremacy at the cost of European ones. Of the 47 US-based schools that feature in both the 2011 and 2012 rankings, 20 moved up the list this year. In contrast, only five of the 23 European schools listed in both years improved their position. In particular, average alumni salaries three years after graduation were lower in 2012 when compared with the previous year for 16 out of the 23 European schools listed.

今年斯坦福大學的畢業生平均工資（根據近3年數據編纂）爲19.1657萬美元，比第二名哈佛大學商學院高出近1.4萬美元。哈佛大學商學院曾在1999和2000年兩度獲得英國《金融時報》商學院排名冠軍。斯坦福大學商學院取代前任冠軍倫敦商學院（今年排名下降至第三名）登上冠軍寶座，反映了今年的一個普遍趨勢——美國的商學院相對歐洲的商學院重新佔據了優勢。2011和2012年兩度上榜的47家美國商學院中，有20家排名上升。而前兩年連續上榜的23家歐洲商學院中，只有5家排名上升。特別是，在畢業生畢業三年後的平均工資方面，上榜的23家歐洲商學院中，有16家2012年的數據比上年有所下降。
