4 NYC Schools Land Spots in New EMBA Rankings

Four New York City metro schools made the list of the 2016 Best Executive MBA Programs compiled by the careers site Ivy Exec.

Columbia Business School‘s EMBA was No. 7 on the list, and Stern School of Business – New York University was No. 12. Rutgers Business School-Newark and New Brunswick came in at No. 33, while Gabelli School of Business-Fordham University was No. 40.

The Executive MBA rankings are based on a survey in which Ivy Exec members voted on programs worldwide. The EMBA programs were scored based on reputation, career advancement, curriculum, life balance and globalness. Topping the Ivy Exec list was The Wharton School — University of Pennsylvania.
