Johnson School Top in Northeast
Our Cornell-Queen's Executive MBA partner, Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario is the top-ranked program in Canada and #21 worldwide. Queen's is also ranked #10 worldwide for open-enrollment executive education programs. Having both Cornell and Queen's EMBA programs ranked among the world's top EMBA programs certainly underscores the tremendous value proposition we bring to the marketplace on the EMBA front.
The Business Week EMBA survey methodology is based on polling of recent graduates and EMBA program directors. The student/recent alumni data is weighted 65% and the program directors' rankings are weighted 35%. While we do not always agree with survey results, the feedback that comes with them can be helpful. In this case, some of the recent graduates highly praised the quality of the faculty but requested additional services such as a speaker series. Improving the breadth and depth of the EMBA programs is part of our long-range plan in order to ensure that our graduates continue to have a real impact in the marketplace.
