The world rankings are obviously very useful is understanding the best business schools, but is there any ranking that details the ranking of UK business schools in terms of their reputation in an Australian or Asian market ?

For example would Warwick be recognised and well-regarded by a Sydney employer ? Would Durham be known as a good business school in Singapore ?

Where should I look to find more information on this ? I am sure the same question applies to other host and viewpoints...

Thanks

I think this really comes down to where the alumni are.

I don't think that there is a ranking that goes into this information.

This really depends - and the biggest variable, like Duncan says, is the strength of a school's alumni network (and career services networks) in these respective areas. For a region like Singapore, it might be that a program like Nottingham has better visibility among employers - simply because it offers an MBA program there. Although I'd argue that if you really wanted to work in Singapore (or Australia, whatever) that you should do a program locally in that region.
