Our MBA, MSAE, and MAcc programs truly stand up against the best graduate business programs in the country. These exceptional rankings are a true testament to the dedicated faculty, staff, and students that we have in the Nistler College of Business & Public Administration,” says UND Nistler College of Business & Public Administration Dean, Amy Henley.
