MBA-Certificates And Dual Degrees

Certificates and Dual Degrees

Graduate students are encouraged to explore all of the educational opportunities within the Cratis D. Williams School of Graduate Studies at Appalachian State University. On-campus MBA students may exercise an interest in multiple academic disciplines, and earn two master's degrees in a compressed timeframe while at Appalachian. Up to 50% of credit hours in the program requiring the fewest total hours may be double counted, with approval from both program directors and the Graduate School.  For example, considering two master's programs, one with 36 required hours and one with 52 required hours, up to 18 credit hours may be double counted in a dual degree situation.

There are currently two dual degree programs with the MBA program available:  The Master of Public Administration and MBA, and the Master of Arts in Industrial-Organizational Psychology and Human Resource Management and MBA.  Students have jointly enrolled in the MBA program with a number of other departments including Higher Education, Appropriate Technology, Physics, and Criminal Justice.  For more information please contact graduate programs at mba@appstate.edu.

The Graduate School has a list of all Master's Degree Programs, Specialist and Doctoral Degree Programs, and Graduate Certificates (Non-Degree Programs). Learn more.
