About the school

Bayes Business School (formerly Cass) is among the small group of business schools with an established reputation for excellence in both business research and education. Bayes holds the “triple-crown” accreditation from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), the Association of MBAs (AMBA) and the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS). The school and its programmes are consistently ranked among the best in the world.

Bayes is also known for its attention to the education agenda. It has accreditations from AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB. It is ranked as the 3rd in London by FT European Business School Ranking – 2020; the 1st in value for money MBA in London by FT Global MBA Ranking – 2021; the 3rd globally for Corporate Strategy by FT Global MBA Ranking – 2021 and the 1st in the UK for Entrepreneurship by Poets and Quants World’s Best MBA Programmes for Entrepreneurship – 2021. In addition, Bayes has been ranked in the top 10 globally for its MBA corporate strategy teaching 8 times in the last 10 years by the Financial Times.

Bayes is not complacent about its achievements. On the contrary, we will be seeking significantly to develop our research and education and, critically, our engagement with practice. We are conscious that business schools are experiencing disruption in how research is undertaken and disseminated, how education is delivered and what is expected by business and society from a business school.
