How The S10 Rank Against Each Other — And The World

UC-Berkeley’s Haas School of Business has been on a gradual climb up the rankings in the last few years, culminating in its No. 6 spot in last year’s U.S. News & World Report ranking. (The new U.S. News list will be published soon, so we’ll see if Haas maintains its position.) Haas is also ranked highest — eighth — on P&Q‘s list. But none of the S10 is ranked lower than 17th, as you’d expect from the schools that follow the M7 in reputation and resources.

In the second table below, we break down the ranking by specialization according to U.S. News. Only two schools — Michigan Ross and UC-Berkeley Haas — achieve a ranking in each of the 10 categories ranked by U.S. News. Interestingly, only one school achieved a No. 1 rank in any specialty: Yale SOM in Nonprofit. However, CMU’s Tepper School of Business scored a second place in two categories, Production & Operations and Information Systems, and Duke Fuqua and Michigan Ross tied for second in Marketing.

Also below, we parsed the U.S. News and Financial Times rankings to find that the highest-ranked school by both recruiters and peers is Haas, while the top school for research is Duke. Yale and Virginia are tops for grads’ salary increase, each at 128%, and all 10 schools are at 90% or 91% in FT‘s survey of “Aims Achieved.”
