Dual Degree Programs
A dual degree program is a formalized path of study that allows a student to pursue two different degrees at the same time, either at the same institution or at different institutions, and possibly complete them in less time than it would take to earn them separately. The two degrees may be in the same subject or in two different subjects; they may be at the same level (e.g., master's-master's) or at two different levels (e.g., doctoral-master's). Students must meet the admission requirements for both degree programs. Other limitations or requirements may apply, depending on the program.
Dual degree programs allow students to earn two master's degrees in cases where there is synergy between the two programs. Course work which is common to both degree programs, or courses which provide similar learning outcomes, may be proposed to count for both degrees with justification of the overlap in learning outcomes of the courses. A dual-degree program that pairs two 30-hour programs may apply nine (9) credit hours of overlapping course work toward each degree, for a total of 51 combined credit hours. A variance may be requested to apply additional coursework for dual-degree programs with higher total credit hours.
