DUAL MBA DEGREE PROGRAMS

The advantage of a dual degree allows students the ability to complete degrees in two different areas of study. This program prepares our students in the business field with graduate professional training in another field. Price School offers these dual degree programs:

 

  • JD/MBA - The University of Oklahoma's dual Juris Doctorate/Master of Business Administration degree is designed to provide professionals with legal training and managerial skills to achieve high levels of career success in an increasingly complex world. With the benefit of the degrees from two of Oklahoma's top programs, JD/MBA graduates go on to be corporate lawyers and run their own law firms and businesses.
  • BS in IE/MBA - This program provides an accelerated track for undergraduate Industrial Engineering students that want to pursue an MBA. This dual degree is referred to the 3-2 program,which is designed for Industrial Engineering students with managerial skills. Students apply for the joint program their junior year of undergraduate studies.

Generic Dual Degree Master's Programs

In addition to the programs listed above we offer generic dual degrees programs, a student may seek dual master´s degrees in any two areas of the student's choosing.

 

To pursue the generic dual master's degree, the student must be admitted to both programs before 12 credit hours of program work have been completed in either program.

 

The requirements for the program are:

  • All degree requirements, including research tools, foreign languages, comprehensive examination, thesis and deficiencies, must be met for both programs.
  • Up to 20% of the total graduate credit hours required for both degrees taken individually may be double counted, e.g., counted as credit for both master´s programs.
  • The double–counted courses must be appropriate for each degree.
  • The student will not receive either degree until coursework for both degrees is completed.
