Lancaster University Management School

Established by Royal Charter in 1964, Lancaster University is one of two management colleges in Great Britain (the other is the London Business School). This highly prestigious university is noted for its research and teaching, topping the ranks of British universities. If the University of York is referred to as the Harvard University of the UK, then Lancaster University, is the UK’s Stanford University. Many British newspapers, including The Independent, The Times, and The Guardian, have credited Lancaster University as the best university in northeast England. The university was ranked 10th by The Guardian’s guidebook to outstanding Universities in 2009. Additionally, in The Financial Times 2010 Global MBA Rankings, Lancaster University ranked 4th nationally and 24th globally. Beginning in Fall 2011, the College of Commerce at NCCU (CNCCU) will send two graduate students to Lancaster University for exchange programs each semester. Graduate students with English language proficiency test scores of: IELTS 7.0 (at least 6.0 for each section) or TOEFL 600（250）/ iBT TOEFL 100 may apply for this exchange program opportunity.
