The accelerated dual-degree bachelor of arts or bachelor of science/master of business administration (B.A. or B.S./M.B.A.) program gives highly motivated undergraduate students
the opportunity to earn a master of business administration degree
in conjunction with their undergraduate degree.
Program Overview
The program requires
undergraduates to plan effectively, accelerate completion of their
undergraduate coursework, and complete graduate-level coursework in the senior
undergraduate year; this requires early and thorough planning with a student's
major adviser. Dual-degree program candidates are expected to excel in their
undergraduate studies and score well on the GMAT or GRE. Early advising is key to success in the program.
Eligible students must
have accelerated completion of relevant business core requirements as well as
most major required coursework by the end of their third/junior year. Students
accepted into the program will enroll in four master of business administration (M.B.A.) courses during the
fourth/senior year. During the fifth/last year, students must matriculate into
the M.B.A. program via the formal graduate admissions process. All dual-degree
program students must have their bachelor degree conferred prior
to their first semester in the M.B.A. program.

-
