NEW YORK — Northwestern University’s business school placed first for the second consecutive year in a new survey by Business Week magazine.
In its Oct. 29 issue, the magazine said Northwestern’s J. L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management in Evanston, Ill., received the highest rating from the 6,000 business school graduates and 322 corporate recruiters surveyed.
Following Northwestern at the top of the list were the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, Harvard University, the University of Chicago and Stanford University.
The graduates were asked to rate their schools on teaching, curriculum and placement, and the recruiters rated the graduates’ skills.
Recruiters in the survey ranked Northwestern graduates highest in interpersonal skills and marketing, and third in general management.
Stanford graduates had the highest average starting salary of $79,135.
Rounding out the Business Week Top 10 were the business schools at Dartmouth University, University of Michigan, Columbia University, Carnegie Mellon University and UCLA.
