BOSTON, Aug. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- The School of Management at Boston University today announced it has been recognized as 37th in this year's U.S. News & World Report undergraduate ranking of Best Business Programs. The School's rating is up three places from last year. The undergraduate program in Management, which was unranked last year, is rated 24th in the United States. (There are more than 1,600 schools in the U.S. offering undergraduate business degrees.)
"This outstanding recognition is a tribute to our faculty and students who uniquely integrate the art, science, and technology of business," said Louis E. Lataif, Dean of The School of Management at Boston University. "Our undergraduates are able to achieve their career goals with a holistic understanding of business operations that prepares them for the rigors of leadership."
The U.S. News & World Report ranking is based on surveys with deans and senior faculty at undergraduate business programs accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. Participants were asked to rate the quality of programs with which they are familiar on a five-point scale.
This is the second national ranking for The School of Management's undergraduate program this year. In April, BusinessWeek placed Boston University School of Management 15th among U.S. business schools in Academic Quality and 30th overall.
