One Rutgers EMBA graduate said in the Bloomberg Businessweek survey, “The school, and in particular the program director, was extremely professional, responsive and showed a genuine interest in ensuring the best possible outcome for each individual student. There are many top notch professors in the program, and in addition much learning was gained from fellow classmates / study groups.”

According to Bloomberg Businessweek’s methodology, the ranking “uses two measures: a survey of graduating EMBA students that covers their entire MBA experience, from admission to graduation, and a poll of EMBA directors that asks for feedback on which programs they view as the best.”

Rutgers EMBA director Farrokh Langdana was gratified for the recognition. “This is really a tribute to the success of our alumni who have gone through the program,” he said. “The EMBA staff and the EMBA professors do so much to make the program an experience of a lifetime.”
