Which university have the best business school?

Cass and Aston business school. How can you forget them!!!! Aston has 92% employment rate for business courses and has a solid placement year, very good links.

Do something fun for your first degree. Undergraduate business is a waste of time. It's only going to be a Cbeebies MBA.

Lol what? Business degrees are one of the most employable out there. Do your research. Most business degrees lead you into investment banks, finance, computing etc which have a high salary compared to most normal jobs.

London, Oxford, Warwick in that order. Don't bother with Durham, Cass is decent too. Cranfield is good though I'm sure they only accept postgrad applications.

More like most LSE/oxbridge degree lead you into investment banking

OP: reputation wise, I think in the uk it will probably be the G5, warwick, CASS(although I heard they are only good for postgrad).

No, they really, really don't.

A degree in Medieval History (with absolutely no application in business), from Exeter is going to get you further than most Business degrees of the same classification.

So everyone that are below top 5 have no chance getting into investment banking? My brother is an investment banker and he studied business management at queen mary. He told me what kind of graduates get employed so please don't teach me who gets employed and who don't. He mentioned Cass/Aston business school a lot along with lse

Depends, for most front office role, you will see them fill with oxbridge, LSE, Imperial, UCL and warwick grads. Although grads from other unis do get in but it'll be hard for them.

What office does your brother work in may I ask?

The ignorance is strong in this one. Do some research before you make such scoped generalisations.

I have applied for Durham University for Business and Management
I have applied for Manchester University for Chinese & Business and Management

I have heard that Durham University Business School isn't that good for undergraduate course (business course).

Have anybody got any suggestion for UK business school?

Do you mean just out of those ones you listed?
I ask as Strathclyde uni in Glasgow just won best university for business and enterprise. Give that a look.

Then tell me what exactly is a Business undergraduate degree, if it isn't an artificial construct and pared-down MBA? It's neither vocational nor academic and has a bunch of first year modules in half a dozen different disciplines.

A bit of law, a bit of economics, a bit of accounting, and then grotesquely simplified versions of management.

For every one person that gets a banking job with a business degree, there will be ten who got their jobs with something completely different. And ten people with business degrees that came nowhere near.

Your last point. Is that so? Where's your proof? You keep making things up without proof It really makes your argument and yourself look very weak.

As opposed to "my brother said so"

There's not going to be any proof either way, unless you poll every merchant banker in the country and ask them what they read at university. And that isn't going to happen.

What do you want? An article in the Wall Street Journal?
