About BusinessWeek Best B-School Rankings 2000
BusinessWeek, which has been evaluating business schools since 1988, determines its ranking of the top 50 B-schools by surveys of the customers of MBA programs: graduates and corporate recruiters. The magazine sent questionnaires to 16,843 MBAs of the class of 2000 at 82 schools, 15 of them outside the U.S. BusinessWeek also sent surveys to 419 companies that recruit MBAs, including more high-tech and Internet companies to reflect the changes in the business landscape. Of those polled, 10,039 students and 247 companies responded. Student and recruiter survey results are weighted equally. In addition, for the first time this year, BusinessWeek accounts for the power and quality of ideas--the intellectual capital--generated by B-school faculties, which accounted for 10% of each school's rankings.
Plus, the 2000 Best B-School Rankings included business schools in Europe and Canada in a separate list. INSEAD located in Fountainbleau, France was the top-rated school, with students raving about its close-knit yet diverse student body. The London Business School and Spain's University of Navarra's IESE in Barcelona won the No. 2 and No. 3 spots, respectively.
