As one of America’s premier undergraduate institutions, Grove City College announced that it will embark upon a Master of Science in Business Analytics degree program and a Master of Engineering in Systems Engineering & Technology Management degree program, beginning fall 2021.

“With these new programs, the College is advancing its mission to prepare strong and ethical leaders through advanced studies in business and engineering,” said President Paul J. McNulty ’80. “We are excited about the continuing growth of the College into new areas,” said McNulty, noting that “each of these graduate programs can be completed in as little as one year with tuition rates far less than state and national averages for similar degrees.”
