Cork University Business School has officially joined the global elite of business schools after earning full EQUIS accreditation from the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD). This prestigious achievement places CUBS among the top 1% of business schools worldwide. EQUIS accreditation is internationally recognised as one of the most rigorous quality benchmarks in management education. The assessment process involves an in-depth evaluation of academic excellence, engagement with industry, internationalisation, research impact, and a strong commitment to ethics, responsibility, and sustainability. With this milestone, CUBS now holds the highly sought-after triple crown of international accreditations, alongside AACSB and AMBA. Fewer than 150 business schools globally share this distinction. Since its establishment in 2015, Cork University Business School has grown rapidly in scale and reputation. Today, it is Ireland’s largest business education provider, supporting more than 4,000 students and delivering impactful thought leadership through a strong and diverse research portfolio.
