A modernized approach to methodology

These efforts at Leeds substantially align with changes Bloomberg made to this year鈥檚 ranking methodology, which assessed MBA programs鈥� value from the perspective of graduating students, recent alumni, and companies that recruit MBAs. The modernized methodology is organized into four new index categories that were created based on their importance to respondents: Compensation, Learning, Networking and Entrepreneurship.

Bloomberg senior editor, Caleb Solomon, told , 鈥淩ather than assign weightings ourselves, as most rankings do, we took an approach recommended by several of the business schools we spoke with: Let the stakeholders decide. 鈥� Their answers determined the weightings of each of our new indexes.鈥� Bloomberg used the results and the compensation data as building blocks for calculating the overall ranking.
