Dual-Degree Programs

Quinnipiac’s accelerated dual-degree programs are reinventing the way a world-class education is delivered.

These accelerated programs enable you to seamlessly earn your undergraduate and graduate degrees at a significant savings compared to traditional models.

• Complete your degree sooner, save on tuition costs and enter the workforce at least one year earlier, with a graduate degree
• Your scholarships are available throughout your master’s degree program
• No annual tuition increases or course overload fees

The numbers are clear, and the benefits are obvious: the combined value of reduced program costs and average starting salary upon entering the labor market one year early is approximately $100,000.

Accelerated dual-degree programs provide the same strong focus on the universal skills employers value the most — including leadership, critical thinking and creative problem solving. Moreover, their flexible curriculums give you the freedom to shape your experience so that it reflects your unique career goals and interests. You'll do this in part through powerful internships, studying abroad and other immersive learning opportunities.

While our accelerated dual-degree programs are intensive, we've also crafted a unique student experience purposefully designed to enhance both the residential and learning components of your program.

Several programs provide you the opportunity of living with your program peers beginning your first day on campus. The relationships and close bonds you'll form are created through exclusive events, unique activities and group study sessions focused on shared academic and professional interests.

Program guidance and academic support is never far away. A dedicated program adviser is available to help you with course selection, assist you with internships and connect you with additional experiential learning opportunities.

Our dual-degree programs will enable you to create a seamless plan to complete your undergraduate and graduate studies.

We’ve made the application process simple: When you are accepted into a dual-degree program, you are enrolled in both undergraduate and graduate degree programs. This unique approach eliminates the need to find another graduate program, take additional tests for admission or complete a separate admission process.

The academic experience has been well crafted to ensure that your undergraduate and graduate courses are well planned and complementary. The dual-degree programs emphasize the skills employers value — including leadership, critical thinking and creative problem solving. They also reflect our commitment to interdisciplinary collaboration, experiential learning and career development.
