The 17 best universities in Europe to do an MBA, according to The Economist

The Economist has released its annual ranking of the world's best MBAs.

A Masters degree in Business Administration (MBA) is a fast-track to success and can catapult its graduates into a high-paying career.

The Economist's ranking is one of the most comprehensive of its kind and covers all parts of the globe. We decided to take a look at which European universities and business schools made the list.

Institutions are sorted and ranked into four categories before finding an overall score. These categories are:

• The opening of new career opportunities
• Personal development and educational experience
• Increase in salary
• Potential to network

Warwick Business School hosts the best UK-based MBA while schools in France, Spain, and Germany also appear on the list.
