Following on from previous good results in the Sunday Times Good University Guide, Strathclyde's Accounting and Finance has been ranked 2nd overall, the same position as last year. In the category of Business Studies in the 2014 Sunday Times Good University Guide , SBS was ranked 12th.
Economics was ranked 16th overall in the UK, one place above St Andrews and Edinburgh, 5 above Aberdeen and 15 places above the University of Glasgow. In particular student satisfaction on the Economics degree at Strathclyde has continued to outpace Economics Departments at all other Scottish universities.
Professor Peter McGregor, Head of Department of Economics, commented, "These results are fantastic for the Department, as indeed the results are for the other departments in SBS. Going forward we will look to consolidate our position as the top Economics Department in Scotland, and a leading department in the UK, by enhancing the student experience, pushing forward on research excellence and doing everything we can to prepare our students for the job market. Congratulations must go to all of our students as well as our committed and hardworking administrative and academic staff for making us the top Economics Department in Scotland."
