Highlighting Quality Schools With More Affordable Pricing
Finding the Best Industrial Engineering Graduate Certificate School for You
In 2020-2021, 3,028 people earned a degree or certificate in industrial engineering, making the major the #70 most popular in the United States.
Today's students have lots of options to pick from when considering higher education opportunities. You're no longer limited to schools in your local area, either, since online programs are becoming more prevalent. Or you may find the programs at a trade school to be a better alternative for you.
To help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Grad Degree Search has developed this Best Value Industrial Engineering Graduate Certificate Schools ranking. This report analyzed 16 schools in the United States to see which ones offered the best value graduate certificate programs for IE students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. Specifically, our score for quality is discounted by the published tuition and fees charged by the given college. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The more quality your dollar buys, the better the value.
Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
