Penn State Great Valley is located in Malvern, Pennsylvania, in the heart of the Philadelphia region's technology and business corridor, and operates exclusively as a graduate professional studies campus — making it unique among Penn State branch campuses. The school specializes in flexible, working-professional-focused master's degrees and graduate certificates in engineering, technology, data science, and artificial intelligence. Its programs consistently rank among the nation's best: in 2026 U.S. News rankings, its online engineering and information technology programs placed in the top tier nationally, with the AI and data analytics programs ranked No. 15 in the country. Great Valley is home to a big-data research lab and partners closely with regional employers in defense, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and financial technology.
