The University of Alabama at Birmingham achieved a historic milestone in the most recent round of rankings. The Collat School of Business’ online Master of Science degree in management information systems received UAB’s highest ranking from U.S. News & World Report of No. 3 in the 2025 Best Online Programs, marking one of three programs that ranked in the top 25 this year.

Statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show Alabama to be one of three states with the heaviest flu outbreak.

During the pandemic, Alabama’s largest employer expanded its mission to advance education, research, innovation, patient care, and service.

UAB, the medical center and institution of higher learning, answered the call when knowledge and expertise was needed more than ever.

UAB was uniquely prepared to help its students, employees and patients, as well as the nation get through the pandemic.
