Through the Dual Degree program, qualified graduate students wishing to pursue an MBA and a degree in another Georgia Tech graduate program can efficiently earn two degrees in almost the same amount of time it would take to earn the MBA degree alone. The length of the MBA program is reduced from 54 to 39 credit hours. Students will take 15 required graduate management core courses (30 credit hours), and three graduate management electives (nine credit hours), including one required international elective.
Dual Degree Program - Benefits for Engineers
Many engineers find that a degree in business complements their technical and analytical background and prepares them for success as they have opportunities to advance in their career. In today's technology enhanced marketplace, a successful manager must know to extract the maximum return from every available resource. This means covering every aspect of a product's lifecycle and a thorough understanding of the business and engineering processes.
The program is designed to provide a strong foundation in business concepts to students in engineering and sciences. Students will develop not only the skills they need to effectively manage in technologically complex workplaces, but also the vision and ingenuity to becoming leaders in their fields.
If you are interested in the dual degree program, consult with the respective graduate program directors to determine the feasibility of this approach. Dual degree students must complete applications for and meet the admission requirements of both programs. For more information, contact the MBA Graduate Office at 404.894.8722.
