I am confident that these programs will continue in their excellence and that other graduate programs will also come to be recognized for their quality.” Founded in 1994, Eduniversal uses three main criteria in its master’s rankings methodology: reputation of the program, salary of first employment post-graduation and a student satisfaction survey, which demonstrated the wide-ranging strength of AUC’s graduate programs.
