Full-Time MBA

Under the dual degree option, you can share up to four courses between the MBA and one of our Master's (MS) degrees, potentially allowing you to complete a second degree in as few as six courses. An added benefit for our international students is that the Masters in Finance (analytics track), Masters in Business Analytics, and Masters in Human Factors in Information Design degrees are certified as STEM. Students on an F-1 visa who earn their MBA and add one of our STEM MS degrees are eligible to apply to USCIS for a 24-month extension of their standard, 12-month OPT, which if approved would result in a total of 36 months of U.S. work authorization. With your MBA, a specialized MS degree, and the eligibility to apply for an extended OPT, you are a standout to potential employers.
