In the latest tabulations,听FT听has pegged the Carroll School at no. 26 globally for research鈥攖he same as last year鈥檚 lofty ranking for the school. The publication听听this month, based on a survey of 100 leading business schools internationally.
As in past years, the Carroll School finds itself in good company on this score.
The research ranking puts the Carroll School just behind highly regarded schools of management at Duke (23rd), University of Michigan (24th), and University of North Carolina (25th). At no. 26, the Carroll School also takes its place ahead of business schools at such institutions as the University of Southern California (27th), Dartmouth (37th), Notre Dame (49th), and Georgetown (60th).
Closely watched, the听FT听survey is an empirically based assessment of research by business-school faculties, measuring how much they publish in the world鈥檚 leading academic journals of management studies. Specifically, the ranking centers on the frequency of articles published in the so-called 鈥,鈥 the top journals used by听FT听in compiling its annual research survey.
Just in recent months,听Carroll School faculty members have published articles听in such FT 50 publications as听Management Science,听Academy of Management Journal,听Administrative Science Quarterly,听Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis,听Journal of Marketing,听Journal of Marketing Research,听Marketing Science,听Journal of Applied Psychology,听Journal of Business Ethics, and the听MIT Sloan Management Review.

The school鈥檚 average ranking over the past five years is 31 notches above that initial position. (The rankings fluctuate from year to year, owing to an array of factors, including exactly when the research papers are published.)
