Graduate Dual Degree Programs

The dual MBA/MSAT program is for those without a business undergraduate degree who wish to fulfill the requirements to become a CPA. It is also aimed at those working in a corporate environment who would benefit from having a specialized degree in accounting and an MBA.

Applicants must have an undergraduate degree in accounting or take the equivalent accounting courses. You can take those courses as part of the degree program or as an  accounting certificate prior to enrolling in the MSAT/MBA.

The MBA/MSBA dual degree program is an attractive option for students who wish to combine two popular master’s degrees while reducing the number of courses needed to complete each degree.

This dual degree program allows full- and part-time graduate students to earn both a Master of Engineering and Master of Business Administration by taking a total of 60 total credits. This is 15 fewer credits than if the degrees were pursued separately. Coursework includes applied projects, where you will formulate marketing and business plans for area companies.

Earn both a Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Master of Architecture (MArch) at the same time. With just 24 courses and 88 credits, this unique program will open doors to your future in the architecture field.
This dual MBA/MSOP program is intended for working professionals who wish to combine their interest in psychology and management as it applies to organizational science and practice.

Graduate Certificates

Earn a specialized graduate certificate in finance, insurance, international business, management, marketing, or a general discipline that you select. Applicants must have an MBA or another graduate degree from an accredited institution.

Going through the course, I was able to understand complex tax matters at a high level even without loads of experience. When you do not yet have a CPA, the MSAT helps set you apart from the candidates who decided to finish their 150 credit requirements with classes unrelated to the profession.
