| College of Business : Nanyang Business School Overview Nanyang Business School (NBS) is a leading business school committed to educating tomorrow’s strategic leaders with cutting-edge academically rigorous curricula which are relevant to business practice. One of Asia’s largest business schools, NBS offers a comprehensive array of undergraduate and graduate programmes in accountancy and business. Drawing on a 50-year heritage of educating the region’s business leaders, NBS provides an outstanding learning environment with state-of-the-art facilities and world-class research centres. NBS is the only business school in Singapore, and the third in Asia, to have both the European Quality Improvement System and Association of Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accreditations. It is also one of only five business schools outside of the United States to be accredited with the AACSB in Accounting. These are the most widely recognised European and American quality assurance standards in world class accounting and business education. The Nanyang MBA programme has been ranked among the top 25 in the world and is 4th in the Asia-Pacific region including Australia. Our full-time MBA is now ranked 24th globally, making it the first time that a Singapore-based university’s MBA programme has made it to the top 25 in the closely-watched annual MBA rankings done by The Financial Times. Making it to the top 25 globally is a significant achievement for Nanyang Business School as its MBA was ranked 46th last year and 67th in 2007. This is the highest ever ranking for a MBA programme offered by a Singapore business school and now places the home-grown Nanyang Business School in the league of elite business schools worldwide. For five consecutive years from 2004 to 2008, the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) has ranked the degrees conferred by NBS amongst the top 100 of the World's Best MBAs. To leverage the strengths of world-class institutions, NBS has established many strategic partnerships and collaborations with leading business schools such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Carnegie Mellon University, Cornell University, University of California, Berkeley, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Essec Business School, University of St Gallen, Waseda University and the Shanghai Jiaotong University.
