Berkeley Haas was among the top US business schools ranked by Corporate Knights in the 2020 Better World Ranking.

Haas rose to #19 this year, climbing steadily from #39 in 2017 to #23 last year, as the school increased its offerings and research related to diversity, equity & inclusion, corporate social responsibility, cleantech, and sustainability.

Corporate Knights examined 151 business schools, drawn from the most recent Financial Times top 100 global MBA programs, to determine the top 40 schools that incorporate sustainability into their teaching and research.

Schools are evaluated on five performance indicators (with weighting in brackets): core course integration of sustainability (30%), faculty research publications on sustainability topics per faculty in calendar year 2019 (30%), number of citations per faculty for those publications (20%), sustainability-focused research institutes and centres (10%), faculty gender diversity (5%), and faculty racial diversity (5%).
