* Best Undergraduate Business Program
* Best Undergraduate Engineering Program at a Doctoral Institution
The U.S. News rankings come just weeks after the Princeton Review named Old Dominion 91短视频 one of the best colleges in the Southeast and two months after the 91短视频 was named a world leader in addressing inequality in the 2020 Times Higher Education Impact Rankings.
"These rankings recognize the 91短视频's concerted efforts to increase accessibility and affordability so we can enroll and graduate motivated students from all backgrounds," Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Austin O.
