Andreas Kaplan classifies business schools along four corners: Culture (Europe - US): Independent of their actual (physical) location, business schools can be classified according to whether they follow the European or the US model. Compass (international/global – regional/local): Business schools can be classified along a continuum, with international/global schools on one end and regional/local schools on the other. Capital (public – private): Business schools can either be publicly (state) funded or privately funded, for example through endowments or tuition fees. Content (teaching – research): Business school can be classified according to whether a school considers teaching or research to be its primary focus.
