The MBA also retained its status as a tier-one program, which is the magazine’s highest designation.
“We are pleased to see our programs earning this level of recognition,” said Karen Rinehart, assistant dean of the Graduate School of Management. “Marquette is focused on offering flexible, rigorous business education for learners at all stages of their careers. These rankings reflect the strong student outcomes and deep faculty expertise that set the Marquette MBA and EMBA apart.”
The online and part-time MBA programs have also been highly ranked by U.S. News & World Report, placing 55th and 73rd, respectively, in the latest version of their category’s rankings. Three specialty programs—marketing, finance and management—placed within the top 20 of their categories.
