Dual-Title Degree Programs

Dual-title degree programs allow students to pursue an integrated graduate degree in a targeted area of focus within the context of their primary degree program. 

Dual-titles options typically represent areas of research that transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries.  As such, dual-title programs draw students and faculty from multiple departments, creating an interdisciplinary community with shared interests.

Students are eligible to apply to add a dual-title to their graduate degree program if they are:

1. Currently enrolled in a graduate program that is affiliated with the dual-title of interest
2. Are within the first four semesters of their primary graduate program.
