The set of indicators for our QS MBA by Specialization Rankings are made up of three broad categories, linking to fuller descriptions in our methods section.
Indicator Weights
The specialization weights associated with the indicators noted above vary by specialization according to data relevance and availability. The specific inputs used to derive scores are written in more detail in subject-specific methodology. We have given different weights to indicators to reflect the industrial or functional or entrepreneurial nature of the career choices, and to distinguish the seven specialization subjects from one another.
