The Ross School of Business is the business school of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Ross offers internationally renowned undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral degrees, as well as an executive education program. Ross also offers dual degrees with the colleges and schools of urban planning, engineering, medicine, law, education, nursing, information, music, and School of Natural Resources and Environment (SNRE).Ross is widely considered to be one of the pre-eminent business schools in the world and prides itself in developing strong leaders for the global marketplace through its unique action-based learning approach. Ross has highly ranked BBA, MBA and Executive Education programs. Publications such as US News and World Report, BusinessWeek, The Wall Street Journal, and the Financial Times have consistently ranked both the school's undergraduate and professional programs highly, often as one of the top five in the U.S. In the year 2006 The Wall Street Journal ranked the program #1 in 2008 BusinessWeek ranked the program #5 overall, while U.S. News & World Report ranked its undergraduate program #3 overall.HistoryThe school was founded in 1924.Since Robert J. Dolan was named dean in 2001, Ross has attained a more cohesive identity. While the MBA program has traditionally emphasized practical experience, Dolan made it a central point in the school's effort to market itself to MBA candidates and recruiters. The approach earned the school the #1 ranking in the Wall Street Journal's 2006 and 2004 list of MBA programs, #8 in The Economist, #5 in the BusinessWeek, and #11 in the U.S. News & World Report rankings in 2006. Its BBA program is widely regarded as one of the best in the United States, having ranked within the top 3 of U.S. News & World Report every year since since the ranking's inception.The school was renamed in 2004 after alumnus Stephen M. Ross who donated $100 million to the school. At the time of the donation, it was the largest gift ever to an U.S. business school, and the largest ever to the University of Michigan. The school has also raised money for a campus overhaul. It is slated to demolish 180,000 square feet (16,000 m²), then renovate or add 270,000 square feet (25,000 m²).

Ross, BBA ’62, has provided a gift of $100 million to the University of Michigan Business School.

In recognition of the power of the gift to elevate the school’s aspirations and realize its ambitious vision, the Board of Regents met in special session on September 9, 2004, to rename the school the Stephen M. Ross School of Business.The Kresge Library's collection includes about 145,000 volumes and 3000 journals as well as microfilms, working papers, and company files. The school's John R. and Georgene M.
