Faculty Recruitment Among Business Schools: Does Prestige Matter Beyond Borders?
By Iyer, Gayatri
International Studies of Management & Organization. Summer2026, Vol. 56 Issue 2, p138-182. 45p.


Abstract :The primary objective of this paper is to examine whether institutional prestige plays a role in faculty recruitment among and across US-based, European and Indian Business schools (B-schools). The study uses university rank as the criterion and PhD-awarding B-schools as the unit of analysis to assess institutional prestige. Data were obtained from the following ranking agencies: Financial Times Business School Rankings, Business Today and NIRF Rankings. Network patterns of hiring relationships were analyzed using the Gephi (version 0.10) software using an original data set of all employed academic staff (N = 6561) across 87 universities from the US, Europe and India. Network patterns were analyzed using the modularity and centrality (in-degree and out-degree) measures. Tier-wise analyses show that the extent of interaction between B-schools within the same tier becomes sparse as we move down the tiers, indicating the presence of an "academic caste system." Region-wise analyses highlight the role of prestige in faculty hiring in the US and Indian networks and the influence of linguistic barriers in the European and Indian contexts. Prestige appears unimportant for recruitment in European B-schools. In India, the roles of statutory government bodies and the type of institution (public/private sector) impact the nature of faculty affiliations.
