IUP’s Executive Master of Business Administration program has received a top honor from the Great Business Schools website.
The program is listed in the top 25 EMBA programs across the nation, and is the only Pennsylvania Public School to reach the top 25 list for 2021. Only one other Pennsylvania School made the top 25 as well. Editors say that the programs are chosen based on “real value,” which is based on the program’s accreditation, reputation, and ranking by independent sources like the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics for tuition costs, student satisfaction and potential salary. Graduates of the program have found success in several internationally-known companies like BNY Mellon, Ernst and Young, IBM and others.
In their report, editors praised IUP’s hybrid program, saying it was “designed to be flexible and convenient for working professionals.” Students complete an equal amount of coursework on line and on-campus at the East Pittsburgh Campus near Monroeville.
