Dual Degree Programs

You may decide that your career goals lead you to build expertise in more than one area. The Fisher College of Business MBA program offers dual degrees in association with Ohio State University's other graduate schools, some of which are among the nation's most reputable programs.

Because some courses can be counted toward both degrees, you can complete the two degrees in less time than it would take to earn them individually. Applicants to a dual-degree program must be admitted separately both to Fisher and to the other school of choice. Applicants must indicate their interest in a particular dual-degree program when applying to Fisher. We encourage you to watch the dual degree webinar to learn more about the program structure and much more. After watching the webinar you will be emailed the curriculum sheets for dual degree MBA students.
