BusinessWeek Ranks Pepperdine MBA In Top 25
Executive Programs at the Graziadio School of Business and Management moved up from number 31st to number 23rd internationally in Bloomberg Businessweek’s biennial rankings of the best executive MBA programs.
BusinessWeek surveyed 2013 Executive MBA and Presidents and Key Executives MBA program graduates about their experience at Graziadio—everything from admission to graduation—and helped the school come in at number 17 in the graduate poll rank category, as well as an “A+” for curriculum, “A” for academic support and “B” grade for teaching.
The Fully Employed MBA program was also a first-time participant in Bloomberg Businessweek’s national ranking of part-time MBA programs. The Graziadio School earned the 12th place spot for the Western region and 50th place in the United States.
Much like the Executive MBA rankings, the publication also surveyed 2013 Fully Employed MBA graduates, taking into account “an academic quality measure that combines six school-reported data points—including average GMAT scores, class sizes, and completion rates—and a calculation of post-MBA outcomes.” The responses to these surveys awarded the Graziadio School a post-MBA outcome score in 15th place nationally. These rankings were gauged by looking at the percentage of student’s from each school that said their part-time MBA program was “completely” responsible for their having achieved career goals.
