Dual Degree Master’s programs allow students to pursue degrees simultaneously in two fields of study. To obtain a dual degree, the student must satisfy the admission, course, and examination requirements of both programs.
Requirements:
1. The student must be admitted to both programs
before 12 credit hours of coursework have been completed in either program.
2. All deficiencies must be completed and all degree requirements, including
research tools, foreign languages, comprehensive examination, and thesis,
must be met for both programs.
3. Up to 20 percent 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.
4. The double-counted courses must be appropriate for each degree.
5. The student must graduate with both degrees in the same semester.
