Hello everyone — welcome back A must read for poets and poetsan easy-to-understand summary of top business school news. CentreCourt, P&Q virtual admission event.
I'm your host, Christy Briseffer. Highlight the most important points. P&Q Stories you may have missed. So let's get down to business.
Wharton's research abilities are legendary in higher education circles. Her B-school at the University of Pennsylvania is home to more than 20 of her research centers and initiatives in everything from analysis to public policy to social impact. Its scholarships create new courses, programs, and partnerships between academia, industry, and government, all helping to address pressing global business challenges.
So it's no surprise that the business school has topped two major research rankings released in recent weeks, the Financial Times' annual research rankings and UT-Dallas' North American and global research rankings. No big surprise.
From our home page, you can see how other leading research institutions performed in the latest rankings.
