SUNY Oswego remains the top online MBA program among public schools in New York state, according to rankings released Jan. 21 by U.S. News and World Report.
The U.S. News: Best Online Programs ranking joins the same designation as the top public-school online MBA in the state from Poets & Quants, Fortune and the Princeton Review.
U.S. News ranked SUNY Oswego No. 88 among all online MBA programs in a process that assessed approximately 1,780 online degree programs across various lists and metrics.
The rankings measure overall academic quality at the baccalaureate and master’s levels across disciplines such as master’s in business (MBA and non-MBA programs), criminal justice, education, engineering, information technology and nursing, U.S. News explained.
“We’re still a top-ranked school with rising enrollment, customized advisement and individual support, and we take great pride in providing outstanding service,” said Irene Scruton, assistant dean of the School of Business and director of Oswego’s MBA programs. “That our student excellence and student engagement scores remain at high levels even with increased enrollment shows how much we emphasize the student experience.”
“Our enrollment growth and the recognition of being one of the top 100 online MBA programs in the country is due to the uniquely flexible curriculum that is delivered by faculty members who regularly win awards for teaching and research,” said Prabakar Kothandaraman, dean of Oswego’s School of Business.
“Our MBA team understands the demands of working executives and life-long learners and provide a very supportive environment that is both inclusive and enabling,” he added. “Our high-quality student engagement practices provide a strong bond between the faculty, students and the campus. Our continuous improvement mindset keeps us reaching for newer ways to serve our students to excel in their respective fields of business.”
