Degree Requirements
Program Structure
The concurrent degree option will be partly completed while students are earning their Master’s in International Development and Service (M.S. I.D.S.) degree. Additional coursework will require two added semesters of study—for example: one summer and one additional semester after completing the M.S. I.D.S. degree.
Alternatively, students may take M.B.A. courses during the summer while they are earning their M.S. I.D.S. degree. Once students have earned the M.S. I.D.S. degree, they would only need to complete one more semester to earn their M.B.A. degree.
Concurrent Degree Features
- Students will continue their engagement with the field while earning M.B.A. credits.
- With careful planning and the guidance of the Program Director, students may be able to complete all requirements for the second degree in as few as 4 additional months of study after earning the M.S. I.D.S.
