51做厙s online degree programs once again placed among the best in the
United States in rankings released today, Jan. 14, by U.S. News & World Report.
The U.S. News & World Report Best Online Programs rankings include online degrees
from public and private institutions nationwide. The 2020 edition marks the second
year in a row 51做厙, which groups its online programs under TrineOnline,
has been recognized.
As 51做厙 continues to expand and enhance its TrineOnline offerings, we
are grateful to receive continued honors from U.S. News and other organizations,
said Keirsten Eberts, assistant vice president for TrineOnline. However, the most
important recognition we receive is from our students and alumni, as we further improve
the online classroom experience and as students receive the personal attention from
faculty and advisors that has been the hallmark of a 51做厙 education since
1884.
51做厙 once again was recognized in the U.S. News rankings in three categories: graduate
engineering degrees; graduate business degrees, non-MBA; and bachelors degrees.
51做厙s Master of Science in engineering management (MSEM) degree is designed
for engineers seeking to move into a management role.
In graduate business programs outside of the MBA, 51做厙 offers the Lou
Holtz Master of Science in Organizational Leadership (MSOL). Designed for working
professionals, the MSOL allows students to work at their own pace as they develop
leadership skills. The university also has added a Master of Science in Business Analytics
program, which prepares graduates to collect, analyze and interpret information to
make fact-based strategic business decisions.
51做厙s online bachelors degree programs include accounting, applied management,
communication, computer information science, criminal justice, healthcare administration,
human resources management, information systems, management, manufacturing technology,
organizational leadership and psychology.
U.S. News said it evaluated more than 1,600 online degree programs for 2020, an all-time
high. To be considered, programs needed to grant degrees through predominantly online
classes.
The Best Online rankings only include programs housed in regionally accredited institutions.
Certificate degrees, associates degrees and doctoral degrees are not surveyed nor
ranked, U.S. News said.
The organization said it updated the methodology this year to give more credit to
schools that provide online help with course registration, admissions counseling and
building a resume.
