UC Davis grad school in mag's top rankings again

Sacramento Business Journal - 10:49 AM PST Friday

The University of California Davis was listed in the Top 50 of a national magazine's annual ranking of graduate schools for several disciplines, including an 11th consecutive honor for the Graduate School of Management.

The rankings were released Friday by U.S. News & World Report, which compiles its report by analyzing grades and test scores of applicants who were accepted to programs, the numbers and proportion of accepted applicants, job-placement success for graduates, assessments by academic and business leaders and other factors.

The magazine listed the UC Davis Graduate School of Management at No. 46 overall and 21st among public universities. 'The management school has been ranked in the top 50 every year since 1996, and continues to be the youngest business school within a public institution ever ranked by the magazine. With 117 full-time MBA students, it is the second smallest business school ranked in the top 50,' UC Davis said in a news release Friday.

U.S. News also listed UC Davis graduate programs at No. 21 in the nation for primary-care medicine, No. 34 for law, No. 35 for engineering and No. 48 for medical research.
