Marquette has three undergraduate business programs ranked in top 20 nationally

Dr. David Krause, AIM program director said, "Marquette’s College of Business Administration is pleased to report the latest US New and World Report undergraduate business programs rankings.  Three of our programs are in the top 20 – finance, entrepreneurship, and supply chain management."
  
Three College of Business Administration undergraduate programs have been ranked in the top 20 nationally by U.S. News & World Report. Additionally, the college was ranked 81st among “Best Undergraduate Business Programs,” up from 88th last year.

As part of its annual “Best Colleges” rankings, U.S. News ranks the nation’s best undergraduate business programs, as well as business specialty programs. Only about 20 programs are ranked in each specialty category annually. This year U.S. News recognized Marquette’s programs in entrepreneurship (16), finance (18) and supply chain management (16) among the nation’s top business specialty programs.

“We are pleased that the college continues to be ranked among the top tier of the nation’s most competitive business schools,” said Linda Salchenberger, Keyes Dean of Business Administration. “It’s truly an honor to see our programs in entrepreneurship, finance and supply chain management recognized for the great work of our faculty in preparing our students to solve business and social problems”.



The business school rankings are based on a peer assessment survey of deans and senior faculty at each U.S. undergraduate business program accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
