Why earn concurrent degrees?

Concurrent programs allow you to complete two degrees at once. Not only does this save you time, but it also costs less than if you were to complete two degrees separately. This concurrent program allows you to bolster your MBA from the W. P. Carey School of Business with a Master of Science in electrical engineering from the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering. This is a great way to maximize your time in graduate school and develop the skills needed to advance your career.

Does this program mix MBA and engineering curriculum?

Throughout this concurrent program, you’ll complete business and engineering courses. However, the courses will be separate and the curriculum will not overlap. To complete this concurrent program and earn both degrees, you’ll take 11 courses from the MBA program and eight courses from the MSE program.
