Combined Degree Program

Combined Degree Program

Synonym(s): N/A

A combined degree program is a program (academic) consisting of two existing degree programs. Successful completion of these two distinct programs is confirmed by a separate and different degree document that is awarded by each program.

The combination may comprise two graduate programs, two undergraduate programs, or a graduate and an undergraduate program. For combined degree programs that involve a graduate program, the combination typically involves at least one professionally oriented program.

Combined degree programs may be structured in such a way that students pursue the two programs concurrently or consecutively.

This is an intra-institutional program type.

An example of a combined degree program is the MBA/Juris Doctor program offered by the Schulich School of Business and the Osgoode Law School.
