Rutgers Business School’s MBA program has been recognized by LinkedIn as one of the top 100 global business schools for career growth in its 2025 rankings. The program placed 38th nationally and 82nd worldwide. Among public business schools in the United States, Rutgers ranked 10th, and within the Big 10, it was ranked 6th.

LinkedIn’s rankings are based on the real outcomes of MBA alumni, including job placement after graduation, career advancement, and the strength of professional networks. Rutgers Business School was also identified as a Top 5 school for job placement, alongside Wharton (University of Pennsylvania), Kellogg (Northwestern), Booth (University of Chicago), and Lubin School of Business (Pace University).

Rutgers Business School Dean Lei Lei commented on the significance of the ranking: “We are very proud of our MBA alumni. Their resilience, problem-solving skills and responsiveness as ethical leaders highlight the return on investment, the education quality and the social mobility created by this large public business school.”

Prospective students interested in the MBA program can attend the Graduate Open House on Saturday, October 25, from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Rutgers Business School building in Piscataway.
