TechGuide, an independent online resource for technology-related information, has ranked Slippery Rock University’s online master's degree in data analytics as one of the top 25 best data analytics degree programs in the country.

SRU was ranked No. 22 on the list and is one of three Pennsylvania schools to make the ranking, while being the only university in Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education school to appear on the list.

TechGuide based its rankings on data collected by the Integrated Post-Secondary Education Data System and the College Navigator, which consider factors such as cost, reputation and salary earnings post-graduation.

Graduates of the program receive both a Master of Science from SRU and a professional certificate from the SAS Institute for Advanced Analytics.
