New Delhi (India), March 22: A recent trip to India has enabled me to meet many ambitious young people and I’ve been impressed by their hard-working natures, determination and dedication to their careers. They are exactly the kind of international student that we welcome at Cranfield University in the UK.

Choosing a business school, particularly an international one, is a big decision. At Cranfield University’s School of Management, we understand that securing a fulfilling job that leverages a student’s talent and leads to great opportunities is paramount.

We embrace the hard-working spirit of our international students at Cranfield, and we have over 800 Indian students currently on campus enjoying the challenges and opportunities of university life. At the School of Management, we have created an environment that nurtures the ambitions of our international students and makes the most of their enthusiasm to achieve.

Our students’ focus and drive bring tangible results. Cranfield boasts a remarkable 92.4% employment rate – testament to our commitment to equipping students with practical skills and industry connections crucial for career success. We are recognised by The Center for World University Rankings as 8th in the UK for employability, and the Financial Times places our MBA in the top 10 in Europe for career progression and value for money. The Economist Which MBA ranking placed us in the top five in the UK for salary outcomes, and The School of Management is also ranked in the top 10 UK business schools by the Financial Times.

Personalised learning with a full curriculum is at the core of the Cranfield experience. Our small class sizes ensure you receive high levels of contact with academics and individualised attention from our globally-recognised faculty, each with a genuine commitment to your academic and professional development. This collaborative learning environment helps you to thrive and grow alongside your peers while gaining invaluable guidance from experienced mentors.

Cranfield prioritises practical application through industry partnerships, internships and real-world business competitions like the Hult Prize. This means our students gain valuable hands-on experience and develop essential skills which are highly sought after by employers. This comprehensive approach ensures you graduate prepared to make an immediate impact in your chosen field and with the prospect to gain promotions and advance quickly.

A Cranfield qualification is a springboard for international students like Sourabh Jain, a Cranfield MBA alumnus who is now Vice President and Head BD Airport Land Development at GMR Aerocity Hyderabad. Similarly, Kalyani Hegde who studied an MSc in Management used her Cranfield degree to gain promotion to Head of Supply Chain, Legal and Administration at Nandu Chemicals Private Limited. Both chose Cranfield because of its industry links, small class sizes and internationally diverse cohort.

These are just a few examples of how our personalised learning environment empowers individuals to achieve amazing things. We also want international students to feel supported throughout their journey. That's why we're doing what we can to campaign for easier access to the UK for India’s students, whether that’s initial visas or the post-study visas, allowing students to build meaningful careers and enrich the UK's workforce.

Choosing the right business school is an investment in your future. Cranfield is dedicated to providing you with the knowledge, skills and network necessary to achieve your professional aspirations. We go beyond simply shaping graduates; we empower individuals to become the future leaders of the global business landscape.

If you're looking for an education that pushes boundaries, connects you with a global network and sets you up for success, consider joining the exciting learning community at Cranfield School of Management. It is an investment worth making. We're not just teaching business; we're helping to shape the future, one student at a time.
