The Broad College ranked 16th in that peer group and 23rd for online graduate business programs among both public and private business colleges. The latter is a climb of 42 spots since 2015.

U.S. News looked at student engagement, student excellence, expert opinion, faculty credentials and training, and student services and technologies in making its assessments.

The Broad College fared particularly well in the student engagement area, placing 15th among all colleges, both public and private.

This year, the Broad College is expanding its online graduate program offerings with the introduction of a pair of programs. The master of science in healthcare management will be an online offering, while the master of science in management studies will be a hybrid program completed partly online.
