It's a recognition which keeps Marian University’s Byrum School of Business one of the best among Catholic schools in the Best Undergraduate Business Schools 2023 rankings by Poets&Quants, the leading online publication for undergraduate business education news.
The top distinction places Marian University in the category of schools such as Georgetown University, University of Notre Dame, Villanova University, Seton Hall University, and more. Greg Rawski, Ph.D., dean of Marian University’s Byrum School of Business said “We are thrilled to be recognized for the third straight year by 2023 Poets&Quants for Undergrads which continues our momentum in educating and forming transformational business leaders who are trustworthy, healthy, inquisitive, and skilled.”
No wonder Dr. Rawski and others are proud. “Marian has changed my life forever – I have been set up for opportunities I couldn’t have imagined a few years ago,” Marian Alumnus Dan Root '21 said.
Marian's Marketing and Spanish Major Jenny Rodriguez '24 agrees. "Byrum provides an education that shines through our faith. Our success lies within our diverse talent. Con una educación que transforma, your future is bright at Marian University.”
“We believe the quality of business education comes down to three core issues,” said Nathan Allen, project manager for Poets&Quants for Undergrads. “The quality of the raw talent coming through the door, what a school does with that talent over four years, and finally how the marketplace responds to the graduates coming off campus.”
Poets&Quants for Undergrads compiled the 2023 rankings based on a representative survey of over 5,400 alumni and school-reported data. The survey methodology focused on three main components school admissions standards, alumni perspectives on the academic experience, and employment outcomes data. Recent grads across the 95 schools were surveyed on aspects of faculty availability, extracurricular opportunities, and accessibility of the alumni network.
