2U, Inc. announced a new agreement with the University of Miami Herbert Business School to power its current Online MBA and create a new track—the Online Advanced MBA—for students with appropriate prior credits and/or professional experience who want a faster, more affordable pathway to a high-quality Miami Herbert MBA. The agreement represents an expansion of 2U's existing relationship with the university and the School, which already offers high-quality, online, tech skills-focused boot camps for adult learners in high-demand fields including fintech and coding. 2U will begin powering Miami Herbert's Online MBA program along with its Advanced track in early 2022. Each will feature the high-quality teaching, curriculum, and student learning experience found in the traditional on-campus program and will include for-credit, in-person immersions for online students to deepen their professional networking and connection to the University of Miami campus culture.
