Graphic saying #2 globally for entrepreneurship research productivity by TCU

Syracuse University and the Whitman School of Management are ranked No. 2 in the world among the top universities for entrepreneurship research productivity. This ranking stems from the 2024 TCU Global University Entrepreneurship Research Productivity Rankings, the only global research-focused ranking of entrepreneurship programs. Indiana University again holds the No. 1 rank this year.

 

“Entrepreneurship is a centerpiece of academic excellence at Syracuse University. As entrepreneurship scholarship continues to grow globally, achieving this No. 2 in the world ranking is a significant acknowledgment of the standing of our entrepreneurship faculty and program at the Whitman School,” says Alex McKelvie, interim dean of the Whitman School and professor of entrepreneurship. “The productivity of our team represents important investments we have made over a number of years, as well as the team’s ability to work collaboratively and creatively. This latest ranking offers further validation of our commitment to rigorous scholarly work in the discipline of entrepreneurship. It’s a huge achievement for Syracuse University and the Whitman School.”

 

"I am delighted to see the department recognized for our collective research achievements. We have a fantastic group of dedicated scholars working on exciting, diverse and timely topics. Our research is rigorous and impactful, and we are being recognized for our thought leadership in the field. I couldn't ask for a better group of colleagues”, says Maria Minniti, professor and L. A. Bantle Chair of Entrepreneurship and Public Policy, and chair, Department of Entrepreneurship and Emerging Enterprises.

 

Launched in 2009 by the Neeley School of Business at Texas Christian University (TCU), the TCU Global University Entrepreneurship Research Productivity Rankings track research articles in entrepreneurship journals according to authorship and university affiliation. Syracuse University and the Whitman School were ranked based on publications by its faculty in three of the top-entrepreneurship journals—Journal of Business Venturing, Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, and Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal—from 2019-2023.

 

The data for this ranking is not adjusted for faculty size. All counts are made at the university level; differentiations are not made between departments or other units. Only one affiliation per article is counted.
