WKU professional MBA program repeats top 5% ranking

By Bob Hatfield

BOWLING GREEN, KY - Western Kentucky University's Professional MBA (PMBA) program has been ranked in the top 5 percent among MBA programs for a second time in three years.



Graduating students from MBA programs across the United States take MBA Major Field Test, a nationally standardized exam, each year to see how their programs rank on learning. In 2011 PMBA students at WKU also scored in the top 5 percent on the assessment.

WKU's PMBA program is an executive MBA which meets on alternate Saturdays and is geared toward mid to upper level managers, professionals and entrepreneurs with at least five years experience. The scores on the MBA Major Field Test in 2012 were also high, ranking WKU's PMBA in the top 25 percent. This test is written by the same organization that also administers the SAT, GRE, TOEFL and PRAXIS exams.

The PMBA program meets in Bowling Green and Owensboro, and is forming a cohort in Elizabethtown.

WKU also offers a full-time daytime MBA program from which students graduate in one year. For the first time these full-time students also ranked in the top 20 percent in the nation.

WKU has a third MBA option, the Online MBA. Graduates from the Online MBA have also scored very well in the past but do not take the exam until December. - Bob Hatfield
