According to Poets & Quants, a publication which covers graduate business education, announced that Auburn’s Harbert College of Business is now ranked second in its 2019 Best Online MBA Programs, moving eight spots above its previous ranking.
“The Harbert College of Business was an early mover in online MBA programs, with an eye to continuous improvement, relevance and student success driving our philosophy,” said Harbert College Dean and Wells Fargo Chair Annette L. Ranft. “We are inspired by our students’ success and alumni and employer support of our program.”
Poets & Quants uses admissions standards, MBA program experience and career outcomes in order to rank their programs in addition to a survey of recent graduates.
“It has always been the goal of Online MBA program leadership to begin with the end in mind,” said Jim Parrish, director of Full-Time and Online MBA programs at Harbert College. “We make program delivery decisions by asking the question: ‘How will this benefit the learner?’ Hearing that our recent graduates have rated their experience in such a favorable light provides confirmation and excitement that we are doing things the right way in the Auburn Online MBA program.”
Auburn University’s MBA program caters to over 580 students with an alumni network of over 5,000.
