April 9, 2008
Indiana University Kokomo M.B.A.’s scored at the 95th percentile on the Educational Testing Service Major Field Test assessment administered to graduating M.B.A.’s nationwide. Designed to measure the basic, critical knowledge obtained and understanding achieved by students in the M.B.A Program, the Major Field Tests go beyond the measurement of factual knowledge by helping to evaluate a student’s ability to analyze and solve problems, understand relationships, and interpret material covered in the program, including the aspect of strategic integration. The Major Field Test for the M.B.A. is designed to assess overall proficiency in five assessment indicators including marketing, management, finance, managerial accounting, and strategic integration. Dean of the School of Business, Niranjan Pati, Ph.D., stated, “This is an evidence that our M.B.A. students get an outstanding education and can be compared to the M.B.A. students graduating anywhere in the globe. I compliment our faculty for infusing the intellectual rigor and engaging our students in a variety of coursework that stimulates their holistic thinking of business. I am most certain that the current and future employers of our M.B.A.’s are and will be very well served.” The Master of Business Program is offered by the School of Business, which holds prestigious accreditation from the AACSB International.
