The University of Toledo College of Business and
Innovation (COBI) has been recognized as providing one of the top 200 Masters
Programs worldwide in Human Resources Management by Eduniversal in their
2012-2013 Ranking of the best 4,000 Masters and MBA programs in 30 specifications
in 154 countries.
Headquartered in Paris, Eduniversal
is an international higher education ranking agency which endeavors to provide
information for students to enable them to make the right decision regarding
the choice of their future studies anywhere in the world.
“It
is a remarkable achievement for our Human Resources Management program to be
listed in the 200 best masters programs worldwide, and to be ranked No. 37 in
all of North America,” noted Dr. Sonny Ariss, chair of the management
department at UT COBI. “What is especially significant is this recognition
emerges from the survey results from human resources managers and from 456
academic institutions and their students.”
“In
the context of a globalized and fast-evolving education, Eduniversal provides a
wide panorama of perspectives and an in-depth view on academic expertise
worldwide with the ultimate goal of actively supporting international educational
exchanges,” he said.
“Furthermore,
I want to congratulate all of the talented COBI HR and management faculty
members whose daily hard work and dedication to their students made this
international recognition possible,” Dr. Ariss added.
“This is wonderful and
exciting news for our college, our students and our community,” noted Dr.
Thomas Sharkey, Interim Dean of the UT College of Business and Innovation. “This
distinguished recognition from Eduniversal, along with our recent placement as the
only Ohio program listed among the top 50 in the 2013 Best Online Graduate Business Program by U.S. News and World Report, further demonstrates our expertise as the
leading provider of business education programs, not only in Northwest Ohio,
but throughout the United States and around the world.”
The ranking of the Best Master's programs is
fundamentally developed by carefully assessing the reputation
of the program, the career prospects and the salary level of someone’s first employment
after graduation, and the satisfaction
feedback of the students.
During the
investigation process, Eduniversal
provides an international platform for the schools, students and human
resources managers all over the world to participate in the Masters’
surveys. The participation in the survey is completely free of charge.
To take part, the schools simply need to register and fill out a form for each
program they want to rank.
The 2012-2013 ranking
of the best Master’s programs is published on www.best-masters.com
which is the unique platform for the students that allows them to access
information about various master
programs suiting their choices
of preferences and simplifies the
process of application making.
COBI received additional recognition from
Eduniversal in fall 2012 when The University of Toledo College of Business and
Innovation was again internationally ranked by Eduniversal in their recently
released 5th edition of their annual worldwide business school ranking, The
Best 1,000 Business Schools in 154 Countries, 2012. UT COBI, rated Excellent, was the only ranked
