The business analytics program tied for #14 in the nation and #1 in the Northwest and #2 on the West Coast. The finance program tied for #21 in the nation and is #1 in the Northwest and #2 on the West Coast. The accounting program is #31 in the nation and tied for #5 on the West Coast.

“We are very proud that these three specialty programs are being recognized nationally,” says Joseph Phillips, PhD, dean of Albers. “We are especially proud of our Business Analytics program—our newest—which leverages our Seattle location and the skill set of our faculty and is further distinguished by its inclusion of legal and ethical issues around data. And our accounting and finance programs have been among the nation’s best for more than a decade.”
