BIDDEFORD, ME — The University of New England (UNE) has been recognized as a top online education provider by MastersDegree.net. UNE achieved top rankings for both the Master of Public Health and Master of Social Work programs. Evaluated among thousands of online education programs, these programs were reviewed based on a range of competency areas that included dedication to online education, rigor of graduate-level studies, and investment in academic and career support services.
