Summary
A business school is a university-level institution or professional school that confers degrees in business administration or management. A business school may also be referred to as school of management, management school, school of business administration, or colloquially b-school or biz school. A business school offers comprehensive education in various disciplines related to the world of business, including business administration, business analytics, business strategy, marketing, sales, entrepreneurship, accounting, finance, economics, banking, insurance, human resource management, supply chain management, logistics management, operations management, management information systems, international business, organizational psychology, organizational behavior, public relations, research methods, real estate, and other pertinent subjects.
There are several forms of business schools, including a school of business, business administration, and management.
Most of the university business schools consist of faculties, colleges, or departments within the university, and predominantly teach business courses.
In North America, a business school is often understood to be a university program that offers a graduate Master of Business Administration degrees and/or undergraduate bachelor's degrees.
In Europe and Asia, some universities teach predominantly business courses.
Privately owned business school which is not affiliated with any university.
Highly specialised business schools focussing on a specific sector or domain.
In France, many business schools are public-private partnerships (École consulaire or EESC) largely financed by the public Chambers of Commerce. These schools offer accredited undergraduate and graduate degrees in business from the elite Conférence des Grandes Écoles and have only loose ties, or no ties at all, to any university.
Kaplan classifies business schools along four Corners:
Culture (Europe - US): Independent of their actual (physical) location, business schools can be classified according to whether they follow the European or the US model.
