BusinessWeek ranks us #5

The BusinessWeek undergraduate business rankings came out today. We moved up to #5 this year from last year’s #6. It is quite an honor to be ranked as high as this among this group of top notch schools. We are pleased that we have moved up but, as competitive as we are, we would like to receive a higher ranking — but only if it is an accurate reflection of our status. We are continuing to do all that we can to improve the experience of Ross students while they are here and hope that these improvements are reflected in the next rankings.

There are several parts of the survey that are of immediate interest to Ross students:

  • The best undergrad b-schools: This is the lead article for the survey. It highlights four schools including Ross.
  • Undergrad Rankings 2007: the rankings themselves. Ross is ranked #5.
  • Ross profile: there are some errors that I am going to try to get fixed
  • Business immersion the U of M way: a slide show of the Michigan and Ross campus
  • Cracking the books: a table listing the (self-reported) number of hours per week that business students say they study. Ross students reported that they work, on average, 21 hours per week, most in the survey. The average for all schools is around 14 hours per week.

Let me know if you have any questions related to this survey.
