UB climbs in undergrad
entrepreneurship ranking
Entrepreneur magazine and The Princeton
Review have named the University at
Buffalo one of the top undergraduate
schools for entrepreneurship studies for
the third consecutive year.
UB was ranked No. 41 overall, up three
spots from last year. UB also ranked No. 22
among public universities and No. 7 in the
Northeast.
Based on a 2024 survey of nearly 300
schools in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and
Europe offering entrepreneurship studies,
the ranking factors in more than 40 data
points about school programs, faculty,
students and alumni.
"Our approach to entrepreneurial
education combines rigorous academics
with the resources students need to bring
their ideas to life — encouraging them
to go beyond conventional thinking and
equipping them with practical tools and
mentorship to create lasting impact," says
Bob Neubert, director of entrepreneurship
academic programs.
New MS program
The School of Management is now
accepting applications for a new degree
program, a Master of Science in Supply
Chain Management. Individuals seeking to
improve organizational agility and respon-
siveness in global, dynamic markets are
encouraged to apply. Students will develop
the skills to actively manage procurement,
transformation and distribution processes
for products and services, and streamline
operations to maximize customer value and
