Two of the world’s most respected business publications, BusinessWeek and Financial Times, have ranked the Robinson College of Business Executive MBA (EMBA) program among the best in the world. Robinson and Emory’s Goizueta School are the only two business colleges in Georgia to appear on both lists.
BusinessWeek magazine listed Robinson’s EMBA program among the top 25 in the world in its biennial survey of EMBA grads and program directors. The College ranked 24th overall, fifth among all public universities in the U.S., sixth overall in the South and was the only Georgia public university to make the list. Robinson’s business ethics program also ranked among the top five in the world. In addition, graduates ranked the College among the top 10 schools in the world for teaching. This is the second consecutive appearance by Robinson College in the BusinessWeek EMBA rankings.
The College was also ranked among the top 75 programs by the Financial Times (London), one of world’s leading business newspapers, in its annual survey of EMBA grads. " The College was listed 68th worldwide, 15th among all public universities in the U.S. and sixth in the South. Other Southern schools on the list include Fuqua (Duke University), Goizueta (Emory University), Kenan-Flagler (University of North Carolina), Babcock (Wake Forest University) and the University of Tennessee. This is the first time the College has been included in the Financial Times survey.
According to Robinson Dean Sidney E. Harris, “The rankings firmly establish the College as a major international business school. To be recognized by both these publications is a strong reflection of the exceptional quality of our EMBA program, faculty and students.”
Added Preston Wilson, associate dean of Executive Programs, "These rankings send a very positive signal to our students and their employers, alumni and faculty about the quality and direction of our program."
