BusinessWeek Ranks Undergraduate Business Program No.3

The Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame ranked No. 3 nationally on BusinessWeek magazine third annual ranking "The Best Undergrad B-Schools." The magazine announced the rankings Feb. 28 and will make them available in the March 10 edition on newsstands March 3. Notre Dame leapt four spots from its No. 7 slot in 2007. The University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School and the University of Virginia retained the top two spots. In this paper, BusinessWeek noted that the academic quality of Notre Dame's program improved, but it primarily attributed the rise in rankings to the students' success in the job market.
