Four of Canada's leading business schools have achieved top marks in the annual QS Global 250 Business Schools Report, which was released on Thursday.

The Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto, Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario, Desautels Faculty of Management at McGill University, and Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia were all rated as outstanding in graduate employability and academic standards.

That qualified the four for the Global Elite quadrant of the report, which contains 45 of the world's leading business schools, including giants such as Harvard Business School and London Business School.

Compiled by global higher-education analysts QS Quacquarelli Symonds, the report also praised the Schulich School of Business at York University, Smith School of Business at Queen's University and HEC Montréal for achieving a leading employability score, qualifying them for the QS Top-Tier Employability quadrant.

Eleven other Canadian schools managed strong scores in both academic performance and employability, placing them in the mid-tier of the overall 250. They ranged from Dalhousie University in Halifax in the East to the Gustavson School of Business at the University of Victoria in the West.

Overall, 107 of the 250 schools are based in North America, as opposed to 82 in Europe, 42 in the Asia-Pacific region, 10 in Latin America and nine in Africa and the Middle East.
