Cornell S.C. Johnson Graduate School Drops to No. 9 in Bloomberg's Latest Ranking
Cornell's S.C. Johnson Graduate School of Management has fallen one spot to No. 9 in Bloomberg Businessweek's latest Best Business Schools rankings. This marks the second consecutive year the school has been in Bloomberg's top ten U.S. business schools, having previously ranked No. 8. The school tied with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Sloan School of Management for ninth place. Bloomberg's annual ranking evaluates full-time MBA programs based on data from students, alumni, and employers, as well as school-reported information. The methodology considers five key areas: compensation, learning, networking, entrepreneurship, and inclusion. This year's shift in ranking for Cornell saw a decrease in compensation and learning scores, while networking and entrepreneurship rankings improved. Notably, Bloomberg removed 'inclusion' as a component of its overall ranking this year, a change that comes amidst increased federal scrutiny of diversity initiatives in universities.
