One of the Best!

Recently, Fortune issued its list of Best Online Master’s in Business Analytics Programs in 2022. In sixth place is the program I have led since 2018 at West Virginia University, our online M.S. in Business Data Analytics. While I have always known our program to be strong, a testament to the phenomenal faculty teaching the courses, external recognition is always nice.

This is the first time Fortune ranked these types of programs, suggesting that these programs are becoming more popular and mainstream in that Fortune felt a ranking might be helpful for employers and prospective students.

Important to note, with the exception of some programs with very low in-state tuition (Ohio University, Kent State, and Oklahoma State), the online program at WVU charges one great low price to all students. The entire program costs $24,600 (whether completed in one or two years) no matter where students live. This may be why the program has attracted students from Canada, Germany, Guam, and at least a dozen states over the past six years. Well, that, and we have a phenomenal recruitment team that helps students complete and submit applications.
