University programs advance in U.S. News & World Report rankings

Bowling Green State University’s graduate programs continue to be ranked as some of the best in the country in U.S. News & World Report’s 2021 Best Grad School Rankings.

BGSU’s graduate program in fine arts improved to No. 73 from previously being ranked 114th and its education program ranked No. 112, up from last year's No. 127. Two University programs, speech language pathology and clinical psychology, earned new, high marks, ranking Nos. 63 and 88, up from 69 and 135, respectively, in previous rankings. The Master of Public Administration program is ranked No. 152.

“We’re gratified to see our graduate programs continue to advance in national rankings,” BGSU President Rodney K. Rogers said. “This growth shines a light on our enhanced national reputation and demonstrates the quality and value of a BGSU degree. As a public university for the public good, we are committed to providing programs that help students enhance their careers and lives.” 

Each year, U.S. News & World Report ranks graduate school programs in business, education, engineering, law, medicine and nursing, including specialties in each area. The rankings are based on two types of data: expert opinions about program excellence; and statistical indicators that measure the quality of a school's faculty, research and students.
