The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa‘s College of Business Administration (CBA) was recognized among the nation‘s best undergraduate program in international business according to U.S. News & World Report‘s "America‘s Best Colleges 2006." The college, tied for sixteenth this year with Temple University and the University of Missouri-St. Louis, has consistently been ranked in the top 20 nationally over the last several years.



CBA dean Vance Roley was pleased to once again be ranked in the top 20. "This ranking reflects our strong focus on Asia-Pacific business across our academic disciplines in the College of Business," he said. "We are uniquely positioned to offer exceptional educational opportunities to those students who wish to learn more about business in Asia, as well as those students from Asia who desire an education in American business principles," he added.

Earlier this year, U.S. News & World Report also ranked UH Mānoa‘s College of Business among the nation‘s top 25 graduate programs for international business for 2006. The MBA program is the only one in the state of Hawaiʻi that is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).

The U.S. News and World Report rankings are based on two types of data: expert opinion about program quality and statistical indicators that measure the quality of a school‘s faculty, research and students.
