The Marketing faculty at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology's School of Business and Management (HKUST Business School), which has long been known for its academic excellence, has received further recognition of its standing as a worldwide leader in marketing research.
Research by the Marketing Department is ranked No. 3 in the list of the top 100 business schools across the world in 2009-10, according to research rankings produced by the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD). The ranking list is based on publications in the top three marketing journals (the Journal of Marketing Research, the Journal of Consumer Research and Marketing Science). At global top 3, the HKUST Marketing group ranks ahead of departments at other renowned institutions including Wharton and Stanford (see the list of top 10 schools below). The full list of top 100 business schools features 77 schools from North America, 11 from Europe, 1 from Africa and 11 from Asia.
The quantity and quality of the HKUST Marketing group's research has been of a consistently high caliber and has been ranked in the top 10 of the UTD survey for a ten-year period from 2001. This year's impressive move into the top 3 is further endorsement of the excellence of its faculty, who came from top business schools worldwide.
