Master of Business Administration
RMU’s highly regarded, AACSB accredited M.B.A program has just earned another important distinction. Leaping ahead of many of its local competitors, RMU now joins Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh as one of the top 3 M.B.A programs in the Pittsburgh region.
The recognition comes in the latest ranking released by the Pittsburgh Business Times. RMU has seen impressive enrollment growth in its M.B.A program driven by its strong reputation and fast and flexible format all while remaining one of the most affordable programs available.
