GDN 23 June 2009, P.15:
“THE University College of Bahrain (UCB) has signed an agreement to set up a student exchange programme with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). It is the only institution in the Gulf to have such a scheme with the prestigious university, whose MBA degree is rated by London’s Financial Times as the best in the world and it’s Business School as the best in Asia.”
What a bold statement to make. The best MBA degree in the world? Better than Harvard, MIT, Stanford? Something must be wrong. The top ten global ranking MBA degrees by Financial Times:
Wharton
LBS
Harvard
Columbia
Insead
Stanford
IE
Ceibs
MIT
Stern

It’s not even the top Asian MBA degree. That honor goes to Ceibs of China. Hong Kong University of Science and Technology is actually ranked 16. With a five minutes research through Google or Bing, GDN could have prevented such error. Nobody knows what other errors these newspapers are feeding us …
