Undergraduate Management Program Earns National Ranking from U.S. News

U.S. News and World Report has ranked the undergraduate management program in the College of Business, Influence and Information Analysis as among the best such programs in the country, according to its 2022 Best Colleges rankings.

In the rankings released this month, the program appeared at No. 33. These undergraduate business program rankings are based on surveys from deans and administrators from peer institutions. A total of 514 programs nationally are ranked.

To have a core undergraduate program be recognized by peers as among the best in the country shows the continued focus on providing a quality, Jesuit education for students in the Helzberg School of Management programs within the CBIIA, said Myles Gartland, Ph.D., dean of the College of Business, Influence and Information Analysis.

“The national environment for business education continues to be competitive,” he said. “It is a true honor to see our undergraduate management program recognized as among the best in the country, knowing how hard our faculty and staff work each day to educate future generations of ethical, thoughtful leaders.”

Elsewhere in the Best Colleges rankings, Rockhurst University was listed among the Best Midwest Regional Universities, earning the top mark among schools in the Kansas City area in that category. The University was also recognized on the Best Value Schools, Top Performers in Social Mobility, and nursing program lists.
