Benefits of Getting a Second Master's Degree
Students interested in broadening their business knowledge can earn two master’s degrees from the Whitman School for a reduced number of credits. With master’s degrees complementing each other, students can increase their specialized expertise to set themselves apart in the job market and expand their career opportunities.
Once enrolled in a master’s program and up to one year after graduating, students can apply for a second program and complete the two for fewer credits than if they completed the individual degree requirements.
Students may use this opportunity if all core requirements are met and coursework is appropriately planned to take advantage of shared courses.
Here is a breakdown of some of the concurrent or consecutive degree combinations:
Business Administration and Entrepreneurship
Gain broad business skills while developing an innovative mindset. Earn an MBA (54 credits) and a Master of Science in Entrepreneurship (30 credits) for as few as 69 credits, 15 credits fewer than the individual degree requirements.
