Nanyang Business school out of Top ranking

Nanyang Business School (rank 24) is now ahead of NUS Business School (rank 35).

Impressive.
 
All this ranking counts for nothing.The alumni of these schools probably dominate the top management of most if not all of the failed financial institutions that caused the present economic crisis.

Look at the horrible shape of the American economy and graduates of these top American business schools are an integral part of the whole mess.
 
May not be true.

US banks have a preference for US graduates and there are plenty to choose from the likes of Stanford, MIT, Wharton.

Singaporeans are quite affluent and are prepared to pay for education.

NUS and NTU business schools cater for the 2nd tier of graduates. A number of them are from the civil service, military and government linked companies. Also some MNCs.

In recent years, China and India provide a lot of post-graduate students. I did a check on the NUS Business School PhD students last year and saw a predominance of students from these two countries.

Anyway, the fault of Lehman Brothers and other US companies do not lie with these graduates. Singapore is only a small blip and their employees do not have that much influence to affect a company of that size. The Americans themselves were responsible for this problem.
