The new rankings are out and not much has changed. Still, it is always fun noting the minor shifts, so here they are:
The overall ranking of the university has dropped one spot to #29, down from #28 last year. This is hardly a surprise. Michigan has fluctuated between #28 and #29 for the last 5-6 years.
The University's Peer Assessment rating also dropped a fraction of a point to 4.4 (tied with Brown, Duke and Penn), down from 4.5 last year. Again, this is not a surprise as Michigan has fluctuated from 4.4 to 4.5 for the last decade or so.
The CoE ranking remained steady at #7, tied with Carnegie Mellon. However, there was some movement in the specialities. For example, the College improved to #2 (from #3 a year ago) in Aerospace Engineering. It also improved to #5 (from #6 a year ago) in Electrical Engineering. In Mechanical Engineering, the College dropped to #3 (from #2 last year).
Ross dropped from #2 to #4 overall. Again, that is not surprising. The gap between Haas, Ross and Sloan is insignificant. Ross "killed it" in the specialities. As usual, Ross was #1 in General Management. Very surprising (and suspicious), however, was the #1 ranking Ross received for Finance. Ross was also #1 in Marketing.
