This dual-degree program opens doors to new careers for individuals with an interest in making decisions related to environmental science, policy, sustainability, and stewardship. These programs make it easy to earn both your undergraduate and graduate studies in just five years, saving you time while preparing you to immediately make an impact as a manager and a leader in the environmental industry. The path to the dual-degree MBA is completed in 5 years. Current Quinnipiac students can express interest in this program up until the fall semester of their senior year using a special application form available in the School of Business. Those interested in this program should contact the appropriate program chair. If accepted, students will begin taking graduate courses during their fourth year that count toward both an undergraduate degree and an MBA.

Students in this program must complete all the requirements of the BS in Environmental Science and the MBA. The following table is a representative progression through those requirements. Students should work with their advisers on a plan that ensures their academic progression.
