Some 42 of Fortune 100 CEOs have an MBA or master's degree in finance or economics. Which business schools are most popular among the top corporate chieftain crowd?
1. Harvard Business School
HBS upholds its reputation as the Cathedral of Capitalism, with eight Fortune 100 chief executives, more than any other business school. Two of them -- Jeffrey Immelt and Jamie Dimon -- were even classmates at Harvard (class of 1982).
Together, the eight corporate chieftains employ more than one million people and run companies with a total market capitalization of $550 billion, a sum that exceeds the gross domestic product (GDP) of Switzerland.
The alumni are:
Jeffrey Immelt, General ElectricJamie Dimon, J.P. Morgan ChaseCharles Haldeman Jr., Freddie MacW. James McNerney Jr., BoeingSteven Kandarian, MetLifeLouis D'Ambrosio, Sears HoldingsLynn Elsenhans, SunocoJohn Hess, Hess Corp.
2. Columbia Business SchoolColumbia lays claim to half as many Fortune 100 heads as Harvard, but that's still a strong enough showing to rate it second among the B-schools.
It's no surprise that three out of the four CEOs are leading the charge at financial institutions: Columbia has long had a reputation for being a finance powerhouse and a straight path to Wall Street.
The alumni are:
Warren Buffett*, Berkshire HathawayVikram Pandit, CitigroupRobert Stevens, Lockheed MartinJames P. Gorman, Morgan Stanley*Buffett has a master's of science in economics.
3. Northwestern - Kellogg School of Management
Kellogg can boast a trio of Fortune 100 CEOs, a tie with Cornell's Johnson School.
The alumni are:
Gregg Steinhafel, TargetEllen Kullman, DuPontThomas Wilson, Allstate
4. Cornell - Johnson School of Business
Cornell also has three heavyweight CEOs from the Fortune 100.
The alumni are:
Irene Rosenfeld, Kraft FoodsMark Bertolini, AetnaDaniel Hesse, Sprint Nextel
5. Stanford Graduate School of Business
Surprisingly, both Stanford MBAs on the Fortune 100 have little to do with the Silicon Valley tech business.
The alumni are:
Miles White, Abbott LaboratoriesJeffrey Bewkes, Time Warner
6. Univ. of Chicago - Booth School
Outside of Harvard, Columbia, Northwestern, Cornell and Stanford, no other business school boasts having taught more than one CEO among the top 100.
But Booth can lay claim to the bragging rights of having the MBA CEO from the highest-ranked Fortune 100 company: John Watson of Chevron, ranked third on this year's list.
7. Univ. of Texas McCombs School
UT boasts an MBA alum who is at the helm of this year's No. 4 Fortune company, James Mulva of ConocoPhillips.
8. Drexel Univ. LeBow College of Business
This Philadelphia-based university outdid cross-town rival Wharton by having Fannie Mae's (No. 5) Michael Williams as an alum.
9. MIT Sloan School of Management
Sloan may only have one Fortune 100 chief on the list, but Ford's Alan Mulally is a heavyweight for sure.
10. Sans-MBA CEOs
To be sure, there are plenty of people who rose to the top of their organizations with only a bachelor's degree. And there are even a famous few in the tech business who dropped out altogether, including Apple's Steve Jobs, Oracle's Larry Ellison, and Michael Dell.
Even Microsoft's Steve Ballmer is a dropout of sorts. He quit Stanford University's MBA program in 1980 to join Microsoft, though he graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University with a B.A. in math and economics.
11. Second-tier MBA stars
While it clearly helps to have an MBA from a highly ranked school, there are a good number of CEOs on the list who smartly leveraged their degrees from second-tier schools.
Consider Verizon's Ivan Seidenberg, who earned his MBA from Pace University in New York, or AT&T's Randall Stephenson, who got his MBA from the University of Oklahoma. Or take Fannie Mae's Michael Williams, who went to Drexel in Philadelphia, and McKesson's John Hammergren, who got his MBA from Xavier University in Cincinnati.
It just goes to show that it's the person -- more than the school -- that makes for success.
