This study was developed under quantitative parameters in which a process of comparative and interpretative analysis of the information contained in specialized academic rankings of the year 2017 was carried out, as well as of the data obtained from the research groups and postgraduate programs of the best universities that are consigned in their websites and in the GrupLac platform of Colciencias. The final classification contains nineteen programs and provides an overview of the status of some of the best undergraduate programs in Administration in Colombia.
