NSU recognized as top college for public service education

TAHLEQUAH, Okla.  — Northeastern State University has been recognized for its online and hybrid degrees in public service by college planning group Students Training & Education in Public Service.

The recognitions signify NSU’s commitment to preparing students for careers dedicated to serving their communities and making a positive impact.

“We believe there is power in education,” NSU President Rodney Hanley, said. “This recognition reflects our dedication to providing our students with the knowledge, skills and values needed to excel as public service professionals.”

The recognitions span across various programs such as Best Online Public Service Degrees, Best Online Degrees in Homeland Security and Best Online Master’s in Public Health where NSU was a top contender against various institutions nationwide.
