UF Warrington management department No. 1 in productivity per faculty fourth year in a row
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – For four consecutive years, the 13 tenure-track faculty members of the Department of Management at the University of Florida Warrington College of Business have affirmed their authority as top-tier researchers.
As in 2020, 2021 and 2022, Warrington’s management department is again the most prolific producers of research per faculty on the 2023 Texas A&M/University of Georgia (TAMUGA) Rankings of Management Department Research Productivity, which measures faculty research productivity in the field of management across business schools. Despite the department’s small size, its faculty members averaged 1 publication per faculty in the most prestigious journals in the management research field the past year. The submission rejection rates of those journals are usually 91% or higher.
Of the 102 universities included on the list of U.S. schools, UF’s management department was the No. 4 producer of research, with 14 research publications across eight of the field’s top-tier journals, including Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Administrative Science Quarterly, Journal of Applied Psychology, Strategic Management Journal, Organization Science, Personnel Psychology, and Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes.
“We are excited that our department’s research productivity per faculty ranks at #1 again in 2023. It offers great recognition of management faculty’s hard work as well as research quality,” said Mo Wang, Associate Dean for Research and Strategic Initiatives, Lanzillotti-McKethan Eminent Scholar Chair, Chair for the Department of Management and Director of the Human Resource Research Center. “We would not have been able to achieve it without the unconditional research support from the Warrington College.”
With the latest data, Warrington’s management department secured the No. 3 position on the 5-Year Total ranking out of 148 public and private institutions, measuring research produced from 2019-2023. The management department also earned the No. 1 spot on the 5-Year Total list of publications per faculty, with 68 pieces of research and averaging 5.2 published papers per faculty member.
