dual degree

A dual degree is an academic program allowing a student to earn two separate degrees simultaneously or in a shorter time frame by completing requirements for both programs. It typically involves coordinated coursework across two fields or departments, often at the same institution or partner institutions. This path enables students to gain expertise in two areas, such as combining engineering and business, enhancing career prospects and broadening their skill set. Dual degrees usually require more effort and commitment but offer the advantage of specialized knowledge and credentials in two disciplines.
