This dual degree program allows select students to be concurrently enrolled in two sought-after degree programs. As a result of interdisciplinary cooperation between the College of Arts and Sciences and Heller College of Business, this highly structured offering allows qualified students to obtain both a Master of Arts in Industrial/Organizational Psychology and a Master of Business Administration with a concentration in I/O Psychology with a minimum of 19 courses (55 credit hours). Students may enter the dual program by adding the MBA, following the initial admission to the MA IO program, and after three of the four core courses indicated in the Requirements section are completed with a B (3.0) or better average.
The priority application deadline is March 1 for Fall Admission. Further consideration is done on a rolling basis, so long as space is available in the next cohort.
