**About The Simon Business School:**

Simon offers a rigorously quantitative, economics-based approach to decision-making in one of the most diverse student communities of any business school in America. We firmly believe that a diverse, equitable, and inclusive learning environment benefits all members of our community, and we are committed to working toward lasting, systemic change in our efforts to educate the next generation of business leaders. This year, US News & World Report recognized Simon's Full-Time MBA as the #1 most diverse Top 50 program, a nod to our commitment to building a welcoming community.

Simon's degree programs inspire a new level of clarity: about how analytical frameworks drive success in business; about what it takes to collaborate and manage in the contemporary, global workplace; and about professional growth and goals. Simon offers three MBA programs (Full-Time, Part-Time, and Executive), five Full-Time MS programs (AI in Business, Accountancy, Business Analytics, Finance, and Marketing Analytics), and two Professional MS programs (Online MS in Business Analytics and Applied AI and Masters in Medical Management). The majority of our programs are STEM designated, which signals program quality and rigor to employers. Additionally, STEM designation allows international students the opportunity to work in the US for up to 36 months after graduation if hired in a STEM-eligible role. Simon's Full- Time MBA is ranked No. 25 in the US by Bloomberg Businessweek (2021); No. 16 in the US by The Economist (2021); and No. 5 in the world for finance, No. 4 in the world for economics, No. 13 in the US among the top MBAs for women, and No. 9 in the US for entrepreneurship by Financial Times (2019, 2018). Our faculty teach and our staff support across all programs, so Full-Time MBA rankings are a strong signal of the value students can expect at Simon-no matter which degree they pursue. In addition, Financial Times ranked Simon No. 4 in the US for pre-experience MS in Finance programs (2022).
