Thunderbird named to the Princeton Review’s 'Student Opinion Honors for Business Schools'Thunderbird named to the Princeton Review's "Student Opinion Honors for Business Schools"

Thunderbird is one of 15 graduate schools of business named to The Princeton Review’s “Student Opinion Honors for Business Schools” in the Global Management category appearing in the April 2009 issue of Entrepreneur magazine.
 
The Princeton Review compiled the lists using data from its national survey of 19,000 MBA students attending 296 business schools profiled in its book, “Best 296 Business Schools: 2009 Edition” published in October 2008. The 80-question survey asked students to report on classroom and campus experiences at their schools and rate their MBA programs in several areas. The Princeton Review tallied the “Student Opinion Honors” lists based on students’ assessments of how well (on a five-point scale) they felt their business school courses had prepared them to succeed in each of the six areas.
 
“Thunderbird is very pleased to be among the top schools named in The Princeton Review’s global management honors list, a further recognition of our leadership in global management education,” said Thunderbird President Ángel Cabrera. “Based as it is on graduate recommendations, the ranking indicates that we are delivering on our promise to equip our graduates with the global mindsets they need to succeed and make a difference in today’s volatile global economy.”
 
Thunderbird continues to hold the No. 1 ranking in International Business by U.S. News and World Report as well as the Financial Times in its annual worldwide ranking of full-time MBA programs.
 
Created and compiled by The Princeton Review, the “Student Opinion Honors for Business Schools” are reported in six categories. The six categories are: Accounting, Finance, General Management, Global Management, Marketing, and Operations. Each list names the 15 graduate schools of business that were most highly rated by their students evaluating their MBA program’s preparation in specific categories.
 
The business schools appear in alphabetical order on the lists, and are not ranked 1 to 15. In addition to appearing in the magazine, the lists are also posted at entrepreneur.com and princetonreview.com
