UTSA named top US Business School for Hispanics
The University of Texas at San Antonio College of Business has been ranked the No. 1 graduate business school in the nation for Hispanic students by Hispanic Business magazine.
The ranking appears in the September 2009 edition.
“We are honored to be recognized by Hispanic Business,” says Lynda de la Viña, dean of the UTSA College of Business and Peter Flawn Professor of Economics. “This ranking speaks to the quality of our academic programming and the services that we provide our MBA students and for our community. It elevates the college into the upper echelon of business schools in the nation.”
In addition to UTSA, the University of Texas at El Paso, the University of Miami, the University of Texas at Austin and Stanford University rounded out the top five schools in the nation.
Hispanic Business ranked the top 10 business schools nationally based on each business program’s enrollment figures for Hispanics, percentage of full-time Hispanic faculty members, student support services, graduation rates and graduate program reputation.
BusinessWeek magazine separately ranked UTSA’s MBA program third in the Southwest and 26th nationwide. The Princeton Review also named the UTSA program one of the top 10 for minority students. The National Society of Hispanic MBAs also awarded the Brillante Award for Education Excellence.
The UTSA College of Business is one of the 40 largest business schools in the nation with 5,800 enrolled students and 47 different graduate and undergraduate business programs.
