Columbia Business School prides itself on the independence of its students and faculty members, but the School is hardly an island it s part of one of the leading research universities in the world. In addition to partnering with other programs at Columbia University to create courses, events, and scholarship that shatter the boundaries of traditional academic disciplines, the School offers students who wish to deepen their expertise in areas outside of business the opportunity to pursue dual degrees. In most cases, a dual degree requires one fewer year than pursuing the degrees separately, though this varies depending on program.

We offer students a wide range of dual degree options. Students can combine a Columbia MBA with one of 10 other professional degrees such as law, engineering, medicine, international affairs, or social work. Interested candidates must apply separately to the Business School and the second school or program. Each school makes admission decisions independently.

Dual degree students register in one school per term. Unless otherwise noted on the list of participating schools, students may begin in either school and tailor their registration in subsequent terms to meet their academic objectives, provided they meet both schools course, residence, and sequencing requirements. Students pay the tuition and fees of, and are granted financial aid by, the school in which they are in residence. School-specific scholarships and fellowships are usually not transferable.

The established dual-degree tracks include:

Architecture. MBA and MS in Urban Planning
