This article discusses a study which determined possible grouping of similar master of business administration (MBA) programmes offered by British and French business schools accredited by the Association of Master Business Administration (AMBA) as of January 2006. The study used the statistical co-plot method to map/group the schools according to both core and elective units offered by the business schools. It outlined the features of the six groups of MBA programmes found. It described the differentiating characteristics of core and option units offered by business schools in each cluster.
