Emory University’s Goizueta Business School’s Full-Time MBA program ranks 33rd in the world according to rankings released today by The Economist. The program ranks No. 23 among schools in the United States.
The ranking is formulated with a two-stage survey. Data is collected from the business schools, students and alumni. Data measuring career opportunities accounts for 35 percent of the score. Program development and education experiences account for another 35 percent. Salary and measures of network potential account for the remaining 20 and 10 percent respectively.

“Some 27 of the 100 schools ranked by The Economist experienced double-digit changes,” writes John Byrne of business school news and analysis site, Poets&Quants. “If you add two of the four schools that fell off the 2017 list, there are 29 MBA programs with double-digit dips or jumps.
“Typically, such dramatic changes occur further down on rankings as the data used to crank out a numerical rank thins and becomes less reliable. More often, rankings show only small changes year-over-year among the top 10 to 20 schools. Not so with The Economist‘s oddball MBA ranking. This year, only two of the Top 25 schools maintained their year-earlier ranks. The 23 remaining programs saw changes that ranged from a gain of 20 places–the University of Florida’s Hough School of Business–to a loss of nine positions–IESE Business School in Spain–in a single year. The average movement for a Top 25 school this year was five places.”
