PROVO — The MBA program at Brigham Young University is No. 5 on the Wall Street Journal's ranking of the nation's top regional business schools, the financial newspaper announced Wednesday.
The rankings are based on the reports from corporate recruiters who hire MBA grads. The recruiters also rated BYU second behind Yale University for graduates with high ethical standards.
The Wall Street Journal/Harris Interactive Business School Survey ranked the University of Utah's program 30th out of the 44 top "regional" schools, which it described as smaller and more likely to draw local recruiters.
The Journal listed two other categories — one for the 19 "national" schools with the largest programs and most recruiters and one for 21 "international" schools.
