        “ At Harbert, our research advances the academy; our academic engagement drives business thought and practice; and our commitment to the student experience shapes the next generation of business leaders.”

        Improving 13 spots from last year’s U.S. News & World Report’s ranking of the Best Undergraduate Business Programs, the Harbert College is again ranked among the nation’s best, earning a No. 53 ranking among all U.S. colleges and No. 34 among public institutions.  

        “I am very proud of our faculty and the respect they have earned for their research, thought leadership and their devotion to an education that combines a strong academic foundation with a tangible, practical knowledge of the ever-changing business environment,” said Harbert College of Business Dean and Wells Fargo Professor Annette L. Ranft.

        “At Harbert, our research advances the academy; our academic engagement drives business thought and practice; and our commitment to the student experience shapes the next generation of business leaders.”

        Two undergraduate programs within the college, the newly-formed Department of Supply Chain Management and School of Accountancy, were also highly ranked among peer institutions. U.S. News & World Report ranked Harbert College 20th overall and 17th among public institutions for supply chain/logistics programs. This comes on the heels of Gartner’s esteemed No. 7 ranking among all undergraduate programs in North America. Harbert College’s accounting program ranked 25th overall and 17th among public institutions. 

        Other undergraduate degree programs offered at the Harbert College include Finance, Business Analytics, Management, Information Systems Management, Marketing, and Business Administration.
