Business School Students in High Demand: Nearly 9 in 10 Landed Jobs Prior to Graduation

Survey finds full-time MBA graduates in North America benefit the most from salary bump while Asia Pacific graduates record the biggest increase in rating of the overall value of degrees

RESTON, Va., Sept. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Despite market fear of an imminent recession, 86 percent of 2022 business school graduates were employed at the time of graduation, up from 80 percent in 2021, according to a survey report released today by the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC). Contributing to the favorable trends are the regional results of graduates who studied in the Asia-Pacific region and Europe. Among graduates of Asia-Pacific business schools, this year 91 percent report being employed at the time of graduation, compared with 78 percent in 2021. Similarly, among European graduates, 90 percent indicate they were employed this year compared with 75 percent last year.

The annual Enrolled Students Survey from GMAC, a global association of leading graduate business schools, aims to better understand current trends in student and recent graduates’ evaluations and outcomes of their graduate management education (GME). Conducted in May-June 2022, this year’s survey explores the views of 1,718 respondents from nearly 300 business schools in 57 countries around the word on their overall GME experience, job search, and compensation in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Globally, the responding graduates of participating schools reported a median percentage increase in total compensation—including base salary and all other compensation—of 29 percent. Notably, among North American school graduates, those who attended full-time MBA programs reported a pre-GME total compensation median of US$80,000, and a post-GME total compensation median of US$120,000—an impressive 50 percent increase.

“With the volatile economic conditions and organizational challenges brought on by the pandemic, well-rounded and prepared business leaders and managers are especially in demand in the current job market,” said Matt Hazenbush, director of research analysis and communications at GMAC and author of the report. “As the survey findings suggest, graduate management education provides students with a powerful leg up for their career.”

Other Key Findings

Most students who set out to make a career change or gain a promotion encounter success

In step with the Great Resignation, students’ top goals and motivations in 2022 were to enrich their lives and make a career change. Among 2022 respondents, a majority who set out to make a career change or get promoted report that they were successful in achieving that goal. Specifically, among those who say making a career change was one of their top three motivations to pursuing GME, 57 percent said they were successful. Success rates for graduates from schools in Latin America/Middle East/Africa (66%) and North America (61%) were slightly higher, though not significantly, than those in Asia Pacific (54%) or Europe (55%), but across world regions a majority successfully made the career change they set out to make. Similarly, 56 percent of graduates who had the goal to gain a promotion were successful.

Social media use in the job search jumps up from last year

Use of social media in the job search—including sites like LinkedIn—increased significantly year-on-year, from 27 to 37 percent, overtaking networking with classmates and alumni (28%) as well as friends and family (35%). The increase in social media use as a job search method was significant among professional MBA (24% in 2021 to 31% in 2022) and business master’s students (23% in 2021 to 40% in 2022). By region, use of social media increased significantly among those who studied in Asia Pacific, Europe, and Latin America/Middle East/Africa, but not in North America.

Students from Asia-Pacific schools rate the overall value of their degree significantly higher in 2022 compared with 2021

Eighty-five percent of respondents rated the overall value of their degree as good to outstanding, up slightly from 82 percent in 2021. By region, students who studied in Asia-Pacific schools reported the largest year-on-year increase in favorable ratings for the overall value of their degree, rising from 75 percent to 86 percent between 2021 and 2022. While both full-time MBA and business master’s students in Asia Pacific had year-on-year increases, the increase was significant among full-time MBA students, rising from 66 percent to 84 percent. Globally, students who attended ranked schools reported similar levels of favorability of the overall value of their degree compared with students who attended non-ranked schools (85%, respectively).

As pandemic restrictions eased, student satisfaction with career and student services improved

Eighty-four percent of 2022 respondents gave career services a favorable review, up from 74 percent in 2021. Also improving were opinions on student services, up to 85 percent favorable from 80 percent in 2021. The improvement in favorability in career and student services was consistent across students of full-time MBA, business master’s, and professional MBA programs, as well as students who studied in Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America/Middle East/Africa, and North America.

Sabin Receives Additional $21.8 Million From BARDA to Advance Marburg Vaccine

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Sabin Vaccine Institute today announced it is receiving an additional $21.8 million under an existing contract with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. These funds advance development of a vaccine against Marburg virus disease, a virus that is related to Ebola Zaire which killed 2200 people during the last major outbreak that ended in 2020.

The Sabin Marburg vaccine is the only candidate currently slated for a Phase 2 clinical trial. Marburg is among the world’s deadliest viruses, resulting in the death of approximately half the people the virus infects. Currently, there are no approved vaccines or treatments for the disease. As recently as July this year, two people in Ghana died after being infected with Marburg virus, reinforcing the urgent need for medical therapies.

The latest tranche of funds enables Sabin to conduct a randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial among adults in the U.S. to further evaluate the safety and the efficacy of the Marburg vaccine candidate and advance non-clinical vaccine dosing studies. The Phase 2 clinical trial in the U.S. will begin after Sabin has initiated a same-stage trial in Africa, currently scheduled for 2023. Sabin will also undertake a non-clinical study on the vaccine candidate during this phase.

“Beginning Phase 2 clinical trials for the Marburg vaccine is a pivotal milestone for us and we appreciate BARDA’s continued confidence in our work and support for this critical next step,” says Sabin Chief Executive Officer Amy Finan. “Vaccines remain our best bet against death and disability from deadly viruses. I am hopeful that in the years ahead, we can offer this life-saving vaccine to every person who needs it.”

In 2019, BARDA awarded Sabin a multi-year contract valued at $128 million to further the development of vaccines against two lethal viruses: Marburg and Ebola Sudan. With BARDA now exercising the latest option of that contract, Sabin’s Ebola and Marburg Research & Development program, to date, has been awarded $98.6 million.

BARDA is part of the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This project has been funded in whole or in part with federal funds from the Department of Health and Human Services; Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response; Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, under contract number 75A50119C000555.

About Ebola Sudan and Marburg

Ebola Sudan and Marburg are members of the filovirus family. Both can cause severe hemorrhagic fever in humans and nonhuman primates. No therapeutic treatment of the hemorrhagic fevers caused by filoviruses has been licensed to date. Marburg and Ebola viruses are transmitted to humans by infected animals, particularly fruit bats. Once a human is infected, the virus can spread to others through close personal contact or contact with bodily fluids. Isolation of infected people is currently the centerpiece of filovirus control.

Marburg was the first filovirus to be recognized in 1967 when outbreaks of hemorrhagic fever were reported in a few Europe-based laboratories including in the town of Marburg, Germany. Ebola was identified in 1976 when two simultaneous outbreaks occurred in northern Zaire (now the DRC) in a village near the Ebola River and southern Sudan. The outbreaks involved what eventually proved to be two different species of Ebola virus; both were named after the nations in which they were discovered.

Sabin reçoit 21,8 millions de dollars supplémentaires de la part de la BARDA pour faire progresser le vaccin contre le virus Marburg

WASHINGTON, 14 sept. 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —  Le Sabin Vaccine Institute a annoncé aujourd’hui avoir reçu 21,8 millions de dollars supplémentaires dans le cadre d’un contrat existant avec la Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), qui fait partie de l’Administration pour la préparation et la réponse stratégiques du Département de la Santé et des Services sociaux des États-Unis. Ces fonds font progresser le développement d’un vaccin contre la maladie à virus Marburg, un virus lié au virus Ebola-Zaïre qui a tué 2 200 personnes lors de la dernière épidémie majeure qui a pris fin en 2020.

Le vaccin de Sabin contre le virus Marburg est le seul candidat actuellement prévu pour un essai clinique de phase 2. Marburg fait partie des virus les plus mortels au monde, entraînant la mort d’environ la moitié des personnes infectées. Il n’existe actuellement aucun vaccin ou traitement approuvé pour lutter contre cette maladie. Pas plus tard qu’en juillet de cette année, deux personnes sont mortes au Ghana après avoir été infectées par le virus Marburg, renforçant ainsi le besoin urgent de thérapies médicales.

La dernière tranche de fonds permet à Sabin de mener un essai clinique randomisé, en aveugle et contrôlé par placebo chez des adultes aux États-Unis afin d’évaluer davantage l’innocuité et l’efficacité de son vaccin candidat contre le virus Marburg et de faire progresser des études de posologie de vaccin non cliniques. L’essai clinique de phase 2 aux États-Unis commencera après le lancement par Sabin d’un essai de même phase en Afrique, actuellement prévu pour 2023. Sabin entreprendra également une étude non clinique sur son vaccin candidat au cours de cette phase.

« Le début des essais cliniques de phase 2 pour le vaccin contre le virus Marburg constitue une étape cruciale pour nous et nous apprécions la confiance continue de la BARDA dans notre travail et son soutien pour cette prochaine étape cruciale », a déclaré Amy Finan, présidente-directrice générale de Sabin. « Les vaccins restent notre meilleur pari contre la mort et le handicap dus à des virus mortels. J’espère que dans les années à venir, nous pourrons offrir ce vaccin vital à toutes les personnes qui en ont besoin. »

En 2019, la BARDA a attribué à Sabin un contrat pluriannuel d’une valeur de 128 millions de dollars pour poursuivre le développement de vaccins contre deux virus mortels : Marburg et Ebola-Soudan. La BARDA exerçant désormais la dernière option de ce contrat, le programme de recherche et développement de Sabin contre les virus Ebola et Marburg, a reçu à ce jour 98,6 millions de dollars.

La BARDA fait partie de l’Administration pour la préparation et la réponse stratégiques du Département de la Santé et des Services sociaux des États-Unis. Ce projet a été financé en totalité ou en partie par des fonds fédéraux du Département de la Santé et des Services sociaux, l’Administration pour la préparation et la réponse stratégiques et la Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, sous le contrat numéro 75A50119C000555.

À propos des virus Ebola-Soudan et Marburg

Ebola-Soudan et Marburg font partie de la famille des filovirus. Les deux peuvent causer des fièvres hémorragiques sévères chez l’humain et les primates non humains. Aucun traitement thérapeutique des fièvre hémorragiques provoquées par les filovirus n’a été autorisé à ce jour. Les virus Marburg et Ebola sont transmis aux humains par des animaux infectés, en particulier les chauves-souris frugivores. Une fois qu’un être humain est infecté, ces virus peuvent se propager à d’autres par le biais d’un contact personnel étroit ou d’un contact avec des fluides corporels. L’isolation des personnes infectées constitue actuellement la principale stratégie pour contrôler les filovirus.

Marburg a été le premier filovirus à être reconnu en 1967 lorsque des épidémies de fièvre hémorragique ont été signalées dans plusieurs laboratoires basés en Europe, y compris dans la ville de Marbourg, en Allemagne. Le virus Ebola a été identifié en 1976 lorsque deux épidémies se sont produites simultanément dans le nord du Zaïre (devenu la RDC), dans un village près de la rivière Ebola, et dans le sud du Soudan. Ces épidémies ont impliqué ce qui s’est finalement avéré être deux espèces différentes de virus Ebola ; chacune devant son nom à la nation dans laquelle elle a été découverte.

Sabin recebe US $ 21,8 milhões adicionais da BARDA para o desenvolvimento da Vacina Marburg

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — O Sabin Vaccine Institute anunciou hoje o recebimento de US $ 21,8 milhões adicionais sob um contrato existente com a Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), parte da Administração de Preparação e Resposta Estratégica do Departamento de Saúde e Serviços Humanos dos EUA. Esses fundos visam promover o desenvolvimento de uma vacina contra a doença do vírus de Marburg, um vírus relacionado com a Ebola Zaire que matou 2200 pessoas durante o último grande surto que terminou em 2020.

A vacina Sabin Marburg é a única candidata atualmente prevista para entrar em um ensaio clínico de Fase 2. O Marburg é um dos vírus mais letais do mundo, causando a morte de aproximadamente metade das pessoas infectadas pelo vírus. No momento não existe nenhuma vacina nem tratamento aprovados para a doença. Ainda em Julho deste ano, duas pessoas em Gana morreram depois de terem sido infectadas com o vírus de Marburg, e isso demonstra claramente a necessidade urgente de terapias médicas.

A última parcela dos recursos permite que a Sabin realize um ensaio clínico randomizado, cego e controlado por placebo entre adultos nos EUA para a avaliação ainda maior da segurança e a eficácia do candidato à vacina de Marburg e a continuidade com os estudos de dosagem de vacina não clínica. O ensaio clínico de Fase 2 nos EUA irá começar após a Sabin dar início a um ensaio de mesmo estágio na África, atualmente agendado para 2023. A Sabin também realizará um estudo não clínico do candidato à vacina durante esta fase.

“O início dos ensaios clínicos de Fase 2 para a vacina de Marburg é um marco crucial para nós e agradecemos a confiança da BARDA no nosso trabalho e apoio a esta próxima etapa decisiva”, disse a Diretora Executiva da Sabin, Amy Finan. “As vacinas continuam sendo a nossa melhor opção para combater a deficiência e morte causadas pelos vírus mortais. Tenho a esperança de que dentro de alguns anos possamos oferecer esta vacina para salvar vidas de todas as pessoas que precisem dela.”

Em 2019, BARDA fechou com a Sabin um contrato de vários anos valor de US $ 128 milhões para promover o desenvolvimento de vacinas contra dois vírus letais: Marburg e Ebola Sudão. Com estes fundos mais recente do contrato com a BARDA, o programa de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento de Ebola e Marburg da Sabin, até o momento, recebeu US $ 98,6 milhões.

A BARDA faz parte da Administração de Preparação e Resposta Estratégica do Departamento de Saúde e Serviços Humanos dos EUA. Este projeto foi financiado, no todo ou em parte, com fundos federais do Departamento de Saúde e Serviços Humanos; Administração para Preparação e Resposta Estratégica; Autoridade de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento Avançado Biomédico, sob o contrato número 75A50119C000555.

Sobre a Ebola Sudão e Marburg

Ebola Sudão e Marburg são membros da família dos filovírus. Ambos podem causar febre hemorrágica grave em seres humanos e primatas não humanos. Não existe nenhum tratamento terapêutico das febres hemorrágicas causadas por filovírus licenciado até o momento. Os vírus Marburg e Ebola são transmitidos aos seres humanos por animais infectados, particularmente pelos morcegos-fruta. Uma vez infectada, uma pessoa pode transmitir o vírus para outras pessoas através do contato pessoal próximo ou com fluidos corporais. O isolamento das pessoas infectadas atualmente é a parte central do controle do filovírus.

O Marburg foi o primeiro filovírus a ser identificado em 1967, quando surtos de febre hemorrágica foram relatados em alguns laboratórios da Europa, incluindo na cidade de Marburg, Alemanha. A ebola foi identificada em 1976, quando dois surtos simultâneos ocorreram no norte do Zaire (agora RDC) em uma aldeia perto do rio Ebola e sul do Sudão. Os surtos envolveram o que eventualmente provou ser duas espécies diferentes do vírus Ebola; ambos receberam o nome nações em que foram descobertos.
