The University of Tennessee's full-time Master's of Business Administration program has been ranked among the Top 100 U.S. Business Schools by the social network Poets & Quants.

The UT program was ranked 78th among all public and private universities in the United States and 38th among all public U.S. universities.

"This ranking is one indicator that we are fulfilling the UT MBA vision of attracting, developing and placing outstanding students who are well-prepared for successful careers in their areas of expertise," Amy Cathey, executive director of the MBA program, said in a prepared statement.

The Poets & Quants ranking is a composite of the five major rankings including Financial Times, The Economist, BusinessWeek, Forbes, and U.S. News & World Report. It awards MBA programs for consistency across all five rankings.
