“This upcoming spring semester is an excellent time for potential students to begin their graduate education,” Dr. Shawn Holliday, associate dean of graduate studies, said. “Northwestern offers a wide array of graduate programs that will build specialty knowledge to provide larger earning potential. Our small class sizes and supportive faculty also help students succeed.”
