Our review
Mississippi State applies its land-grant DNA to management: agribusiness, poultry and timber processing, and the furniture-manufacturing belt supply the placements. The distance MBA extends the same faculty statewide. At roughly $32,000 resident cost, the degree pays for itself before most rivals finish orientation.
