April, 8 2020— - Northern Kentucky University’s Master of Business Administration (MBA) program, housed in the Haile/US Bank College of Business, is highlighted by U.S. News & World Report in its Best Online MBA Programs list.
This is the first time U.S. News ranked NKU for its MBA program, which emphasizes instructor engagement, expert opinions, faculty credentials and student services and technologies. NKU’s program received high remarks for its graduation rates, small class sizes and accreditation.
“These are the best online master's degree programs in business administration. They also excel at educating distance learners while providing robust career and financial support. Students should also note that the online MBA programs at Northern Kentucky University are accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, the gold standard of business school accreditation,” stated U.S. News in its review.
NKU revamped its Master of Business Administration degree in 2017. The improved program is designed for working professionals to enhance their careers using new business topics in a fast-paced, customizable way.
“With nearly 800 online MBA programs nationwide, this ranking from U.S. News is a true indicator of excellence for NKU’s program,” said Dean Hassan HassabElnaby, Haile/US Bank College of Business. “Our dedicated faculty remain committed—and do an excellent job—of blurring the lines between virtual and traditional classrooms. Whether you want to continue your education or climb the corporate ladder, we will provide the tools to accelerate your career.”
Along with ranking NKU’s MBA program, U.S. News also highlighted the College of Business’ undergraduate programs on its Best Undergraduate Business Programs list. The College of Business is accredited by AACSB-International, a distinction earned by fewer than 5 percent of business schools worldwide.
Applications are open for both undergraduate and graduate degree seekers. To learn more about NKU’s business offerings, visit here.
