A survey has placed Bradford University's School of Management in the top 50 international executive MBA programmes.

The results revealed graduates from Bradford are earning nearly £65,000 per year, three years after getting their MBA, an increase of 69 per cent on their salary at the start of the programme.

The survey placed Bradford 46th in the world - up one from last year - and ninth in the UK.

The results revealed that Bradford is committed to equal opportunities, with a high percentage of women working both within the School and studying for the MBA.

Professor Arthur Francis, dean of the Bradford University School of Management, said: "The School has earned itself an international reputation."
