MBA + MChE (Chemical Engineering)
Broaden your engineering and business knowledge by earning a master of chemical engineering and MBA at the same time. The dual degree is possible with either the thesis or non-thesis master’s degree in chemical engineering.
Program Requirements
The dual degree program offers a faster time to completion than pursuing the degrees separately. The program counts 15 engineering credits toward the MBA, reducing the required credit hours to 62. In order to take advantage of this credit savings, you must be admitted to the dual degree program before completing either the engineering or MBA program.
