Purdue University West Lafayette (Krannert) (IN) The 437 master s programs in business accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business were surveyed; 398 responded, with 142 providing the data needed to calculate rankings based on a weighted average of the eight indicators below. Quality assessment: Two separate surveys were conducted in the fall of Business school deans and directors of accredited M.B.A. programs were asked to rate overall academic quality of the master s programs at each school on a scale from marginal (1) to outstanding (5); 44 percent 8.

Corporate recruiters and company contacts who hired M.B.A. graduates from previously ranked programs also were asked to rate the programs; 21 percent responded. The two most recent years recruiters surveys were averaged and are weighted by.15 in the overall model. Placement success (weighted by.35): This is meas ured by average starting salary and bonus (40 percent of this measure) and employment rates for full-time M.B.A. program 2010 graduates, computed at graduation (20 percent) and three months later (40 percent). As is standard in calculating M.B.A. placement rates, those not seeking jobs and those for whom the school has no information are excluded. Salary is based on the number of graduates reporting data. Signing bonus is weighted by the proportion of graduates reporting their salaries who received a bonus, since not everyone who reported a base salary received a signing bonus. Student selectivity (.25): The strength of full-time students entering in fall 2010 was measured by average GMAT score (65 percent), average undergraduate Part-Time M.B.A. Schools Part-time M.B.A. programs play a vital role in business education, especially for working people who can t go full time because of family or financial reasons. Many of the top-ranked part-time M.B.A. programs are at schools that also have top-ranked full-time programs. U.S. News s part-time M.B.A. ranking is based solely on a fall 2010 peer assessment survey that asked business school deans and M.B.A. program directors at each of the nation s 295 part-time M.B.A. programs to rate the other part-time programs on a 5-point 6.

Overall rank: Data were standardized about their means, and stand ardized scores were weighted, totaled, and rescaled so that the top school received 100; others received their percentage of the top score. Specialty rankings: These rankings are based solely on ratings by educators at peer schools. Business school deans and M.B.A. program heads were asked to nominate up to 10 programs for excellence in each specialty. Those receiving the most nominations are listed. scale, from marginal (1) to outstanding (5). Forty-one percent of those surveyed responded. Programs were ranked based on their average peer assessment score. U.S. News defines a part-time M.B.A. program as being at an AACSB-accredited school with at least 20 students enrolled part time in both fall 2009 and fall A part-time M.B.A. program had to meet the two-year enrollment and accreditation standard to be included in the ranking.
