Master of Design and Master of Business Administration

The program director or academic adviser will develop a curriculum plan when the student begins the dual-degree program. Students select a series of courses from the available studios and lectures to meet the objectives of the student s professional goals. Students select from the same pool of elective classes as found under the Master of Design description.Typically, students will reduce the overall credit requirements of typical individual degree programs because M.B.A. will double count 6 M.Des. credit hours towards general electives and 6 credit hours towards the design leadership concentration, and M.Des. will double count 12 M.B.A. credit hours towards M.Des. electives. The program director may make exceptions to this plan depending upon the student s individual situation.
