Bucknell Prospectives

<p>Hello @Francessss and thank you for your question!</p>

<p>The School of Management is truly one of the best in the country and the fact that it is combined with a Bucknell liberal arts education makes it even more impressive. Bucknell’s rural location has never and will never impede students’ ability to network or receive jobs and internships. Our alumni connections are so strong and Bucknell has an extremely impressive reputation in NYC, DC, Philly and several other large markets. I would say that Bucknell students are on the same competitive level (in terms of job placement) as schools located within these cities, such as NYU or Georgetown. </p>

<p>I have no idea about Businessweek but I can say that just last year the School of Management received its first full accreditation. As the link I’ve provided below states: “Bucknell University’s School of Management has earned accreditation from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), an achievement shared by fewer than 5 percent of the world’s business programs.” Know that if you pursue a Management degree at Bucknell you will receive one the best educations possible today in the US. It’s also important to note that just because we were only recently accredited it does not mean that it is just a start up school. As the same article states: “‘The main reason we were able to move through this process so quickly is the quality of the management education at Bucknell was already so high,’ Johnson-Cramer explained. ‘In some sense this is an affirmation of what Bucknellians already knew: our faculty are doing great work and our students are getting an excellent education.’”</p>

<p>All in all, the School of Management is one of the best reason to choose Bucknell and know that all Bucknellians, regardless of major, have amazing opportunities in terms of jobs and internships. Let me know if you have any other questions and 'Ray Bucknell. </p>
