Accounting Faculty Rank Among World's Best for Research Productivity

2020 BYU Accounting Research Productivity Ranking

Nebraska's School of Accountancy is No. 1 in Nebraska (or No. 2 in Big Ten) in the latest ranking, placing it in the top 15 percent for faculty research among over 600 national and international institutions measured. Nebraska earned the recognition based on the total research output of the school's faculty in the top 12 peer-reviewed accounting journals. The rankings are broken down into three distinct time periods—the past six years, the past 12 years and all publications since 1990—so that each year’s ranking builds on the previous year’s number.
