Cameron Named Among Top MBA Programs in Houston

The University of St. Thomas – Cameron School of Business (UST) was recently named among the top MBA program in Houston, placing third out of 10 universities ranked by College Choice.

A leading authority in rankings for colleges and universities, College Choice recently evaluated leading MBA programs in Houston to help prospective students make informed choices about their futures. In addition to ranking the top programs, the website also reaffirmed the benefits of choosing Houston for your MBA—among them, the overwhelming availability of employees, businesses and employers. Currently, Houston is home to the greatest number of Fortune 500 companies in Texas.

UST provides the perfect opportunity for its MBA graduates to connect with the vibrant city, offering opportunities for study in a variety of fields including healthcare, education, government and nonprofit organization management.

College Choice’s 2016 ranking of Best MBA Programs in Houston considered only regionally accredited colleges and universities and looked at a number of factors that can shape an MBA program. Among them were cost of attendance, student retention/satisfaction, academic reputation and average salaries for graduates in their early career.

While tuition costs can be a tremendous factor in deciding which MBA program to attend, College Choice reminds prospective students that a number of other factors are in play, such as the level of opportunity, academic experience and quality of connections forged during the program. Since such connections can often lead to job placement and a steady salary, these factors can quickly make up for program costs. Furthermore, programs like the Cameron Scholars—which provides qualifying students with a monetary scholarship and an alumni mentor—can help offset the cost of your degree.
