Women 3.0

Women 3.0 Magazine, a premier business, investing and wealth-building resource for women, has ranked UT’s executive MBAs and full-time MBA program in the Top 50 in the U.S. The rankings were based on academic excellence, entrepreneurial focus, commitment to new businesses and ideas and flexibility for working women.

"We are honored that Women 3.0 has included our executive and full-time MBA programs in its Top-50 rankings," said Jan Williams, dean of the College of Business Administration. "These rankings reinforce our efforts in ensuring that our executive MBA programs deliver superior education with minimal interruption to students’ careers and in recognizing the importance of innovation and entrepreneurship in our curriculum."

Women 3.0 joins other prestigious sources, such as Business Week, U.S. News & World Report, Financial Times, Supply Chain Management Review, Public Accounting Report, Forbes, Princeton Review and the Wall Street Journal, in ranking UT’s executive and full-time MBA programs among the nation’s best.

Women 3.0 ranks all schools alphabetically, not numerically.

To be listed as a Top 50 executive MBA program, the school must offer:

• A degree heavily focused in accounting, operations, marketing, management and/or finance — areas most demanded by working adults.
• A dedicated, talented faculty.
• A wide variety of electives.
• Proximity to strong business-hub cities.
• A good flex-schedule for working students.

To be listed as a Top 50 MBA program in the area of entrepreneurship, the school must offer a strong MBA program, a degree or focus in entrepreneurship, a wide offering of relevant electives, established entrepreneurship centers/incubators and proximity to strong business-hub cities.
