Creighton University earned six rankings in the 2022 U.S. News & World Report Best Online Programs. The programs that earned the highest marks included online graduate Business and Education degrees.

Creighton remains one of the best schools in the country for students pursuing an online master’s degree in Education, with a Top-10 ranking for the Best Online Master’s in Education.

Timothy J. Cook, PhD, Professor and Chair of Education, was delighted by the recognition.

“A few years ago, the faculty and staff of the Education Department committed to reinventing itself to meet the changing needs of educators who want to pursue a master’s degree in Education at a Jesuit university. The top 10 ranking tells us that we are achieving our goal of providing a mission-driven, student-centered, high-quality graduate program in an online environment.”

In addition to education, online graduate business programs in Creighton’s Heider College of Business were recognized for Best Online MBA; Online Graduate Business Programs (Excluding MBA); Best Online MBA General Management; and Best Online MBA Programs for Veterans. These recognized programs are in addition to a 2022 ranking Creighton received for the Best Part-Time MBA Program.

Todd C. Darnold, PhD, Associate Professor and Associate Dean in Heider College of Business added:

“Our faculty and staff strive each day to understand our students’ needs and to help them meet their goals in the most flexible, engaging, and immediately applicable manner possible. We are pleased that these efforts on behalf of our students and alumni are being recognized.”

Only degree-granting programs at accredited institutions offering courses entirely online were considered. U.S. News & World Report used reputation, student engagement, faculty credentials and training, student excellence, technology and other factors to determine its rankings. The rankings also included peer review data based on schools’ evaluations of each other.

Nearly 9,000 undergraduate, graduate and professional students of various ages come to Creighton for our nationally ranked programs and reputable education. In addition, the Heider College of Business is celebrating 100 years of graduating business leaders around the globe. When you consider our rich history, mission and Jesuit values and combine that with U.S. News & World Report’s rankings, you can see why so many graduate degree seekers choose Creighton.
