In another report [see report] conducted by College Transitions, Rutgers was recognized as one of the top feeder schools in the U.S. for jobs on Wall Street. Public business schools that were recognized included U. Michigan, UC Berkeley, UT-Austin, UCLA, UVA, UNC, and Rutgers! The survey showed that Goldman Sachs was the top destination for Rutgers graduates on Wall Street. The report stated, “Teens aiming to one day work at a major bank or investment firm often wonder which undergraduate colleges and universities will best aid this professional quest. This is, after all, a field where the most reputable players often draw from a small pool of elite schools, and where tapping into one’s alumni network can prove critical to landing the most desired jobs. As expected, Penn, Columbia, and a few other “usual suspects” grant nearly unparalleled access to Wall Street; however, there are some surprising schools that send impressive numbers of grads to the top investment houses each year, including many smaller liberal arts schools.”
Building a strong public business school takes a tremendous amount of hard work and effort from many people over many years. We are very proud of the determination and dedication of our faculty and staff members to prepare our talented and diverse students for their dream jobs and career potential.
