University of South Florida Muma College of Business

The USF Muma College of Business boasts one of the nation's best accounting schools, a top-ranked entrepreneurship center, a nationally-ranked MBA program, and world-class research faculty. The USF Muma College of Business and Lynn Pippenger School of Accountancy are separately accredited by AACSB International - the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. The hallmark of excellence in business education, AACSB's Board of Directors reaffirmed USF's accreditation in 2013, one of just 178 institutions worldwide certified for quality in both overall business and accounting programs. In November, Bloomberg BusinessWeek ranked our part-time MBA program higher than any other public university in Florida: No. 16 among public schools in the nation and No. 36 in the nation among both private and public universities. Our undergraduate program remained on BusinessWeek's best business schools list, and our information systems specialty was ranked in the top 25. USF was the only Florida school listed in Military Times "Best for Vets" business school ranking, coming in at No. 9. Our Center for Entrepreneurship was again ranked by Entrepreneur magazine and the Princeton Review; at No. 11, USF was ranked higher than any other university in the southeast.
