Keene, N.H. (PRWEB) November 28, 2008 -- The Green MBA program at Antioch University New England ranks in the top five in multiple categories among MBA graduate programs nationwide according to a new publication by Net Impact, an international nonprofit organization. San Francisco-based Net Impact ranked Antioch University New England's MBA in Organizational and Environmental Sustainability (Green MBA) in the top five in seven of thirteen categories in its Business as Unusual: The 2008 Student Guide to Graduate Business Programs.
"The high Net Impact rankings are a ringing endorsement to the students we serve and the future students who choose Antioch University New England's Green MBA program for their education partner," President David Caruso, PhD said.
Within the Net Impact rankings, Antioch University New England:
- Regularly topped student rankings from better-known MBA programs such as Yale School of Management, Babson University's F.W. Olin School of Business, The Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy at Tufts University and the Johnson School of Business Management at Cornell University.
- Received 92 percent of respondent agreement that its students are enthusiastic about social and environmental themes in the curriculum.
- Received 100 percent of respondent agreement that its faculty are enthusiastic about about social and environmental themes in the curriculum.
Antioch University New England's Green MBA ranked first out of 63 MBA programs in two categories: faculty support of Net Impact themes in the curriculum, and faculty support of Net Impact themes in extracurricular events and activities. Antioch's Green MBA came in second for preparing Net Impact students for ethical and socially responsible leadership, third for student support of Net Impact themes in the curriculum, and fourth for both administrative support of Net Impact themes and for preparing all students for ethical and socially responsible leadership.
Business as Unusual: The 2008 Student Guide to Graduate Business Programs used a qualitative survey of Net Impact chapter leaders from sixty-three MBA programs to compile the data as well as the results from an online survey completed by another 1,552 student Net Impact members. Graduate students rated their individual MBA programs on five main categories including reasons to attend, administrative support, career services and alumni support, student activities, and curriculum. These categories were broken down into 14 subcategories. Net Impact is an international nonprofit organization of over 10,000 MBAs, graduate students, and executives.
The Department of Organization & Management and its Green MBA program launched a new chapter of Net Impact in November of 2007. Membership in the Antioch University New England chapter is open to all Organization & Management students.
