Akinleye, Ph.D. “NCCU’s top ranking is gratifying and it demonstrates NCCU’s commitment to offer premier education for students to be well prepared for the global workforce.”

The university was also mentioned in the top 20 for degrees awarded to African-Americans in specific fields, including homeland security; law enforcement; biological and biomedical sciences; parks and recreation, leisure, and fitness studies; business administration; physical sciences; hospitality administration/management.

NCCU also ranked among the top 40 for degrees conferred for African-Americans in areas such as health professions; English language and literature; visual and performing arts.
