A master’s program offered at Mississippi State University has earned a first-place ranking by a national platform.
For the second time in five years, the university’s online Master of Business Administration (MBA) program has earned the top spot in national rankings released by Best Value Schools. Mississippi State bested East Carolina University, the University of Florida, Tennessee Technological University, and Ball State University to earn the No. 1 placement.
“We take immense pride in our MBA program at Mississippi State. Our faculty are among the nation’s finest, and our graduate program team is committed to providing an exceptional experience for every student,” MSU College of Business Dean Scott Grawe said. “The online MBA challenges students to put their knowledge to work as consultants on live cases to prepare them for long-term success. We continue to lead the way with our experiential learning opportunities for all students — in Starkville and online.”
Mississippi State’s 30-hour online MBA program is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, the longest-standing and most prestigious accrediting body for business education. The curriculum includes a foundation in management, marketing, finance, economics, and quantitative analysis.
Founded in 1915, the university’s College of Business, which hosts the online MBA curriculum, is the oldest college of business in Mississippi and one of the oldest in the U.S. South.
