Cal State San Bernardino’s Jack H. Brown College of Business and Public Administration has once again been ranked among the top business schools in the globe for its MBA programs, according to a recent ranking from CEO Magazine.

The listing placed the Brown College’s MBA program in Tier 1 of the North American MBA rankings along with four other California State University campuses: Chico, East Bay, Long Beach and Northridge.
