"正澳门六合彩开奖结果 continues to add graduate degrees in online, hybrid and traditional formats to provide educational opportunities for career advancement to adult students."

"Additionally, we've kept our programs small enough to warrant individualized attention and cohort networking opportunities for each incoming graduate class. Also, we have been driven to find a balance between current theory and practice, as we know most of our graduate students are practitioners in their fields when they enter our programs."
The Cottrell MBA, which went fully online in fall 2022, was sixth among public universities in Georgia on the U.S. News part-time MBA list. It is a convenient option for busy professionals who want to earn a high-quality MBA while maintaining full-time employment.
