Student Excellence (25 percent) Expert Opinion (25 percent) Faculty Credentials and Training (11 percent) Student Services and Technologies (11 percent) USC Marshall’s Online MBA, launched in 2015, has quickly risen to the top of an increasingly competitive online MBA degree market. It is consistently ranked among the best MBA programs, having earned the #1 ranking from Poets&Quants as well as being in the top 3 online MBAs in The Princeton Review. Marshall built its online MBA to take full advantage of the latest technological learning tools, ensuring that students can connect not only with faculty but with their peers and industry leaders. For the coming year, USC plans to expand on this with improved engagement opportunities, linked to the university’s Speaker Series. The Speaker Series connects OMBA students with leaders across different industries. Events have been and will continue to be held via live videoconference. Moving forward, USC will also provide opportunities for optional, in-person tours at some of the companies where these speakers work. This way, students gain even more insight from industry leaders and exposure to business environments where they can get a stronger sense of the environments that cultivate success. This paradigm of continuous improvement and commitment to strategic technological investments has created an environment where students can forge authentic professional connections, collaborate and complete exceptional work together. “Collaboration and camaraderie have been key pillars of the Online MBA since the program’s inception,” said Miriam Burgos, Online MBA academic https://onlinemba.marshall.usc.edu/
