Industrial Engineering (Joint MS and MBA)

Joint M.S. and M.B.A.

The Department and Columbia Business School offer a joint M.S. program in Industrial Engineering. Prospective students for this special program must submit separate applications to Columbia Engineering and Columbia Business School and be admitted to both schools for entrance into the joint program.

Admissions requirements are the same as those for the regular M.S. program in Industrial Engineering and for the M.B.A. This joint program is coordinated so that both degrees can be obtained after five terms of full-time study (30 points in two terms while registered in Columbia Engineering and 45 points in three terms while registered in Columbia Business School).

Students in the joint program must complete certain courses by the end of their first year of study. If a substantial equivalent has been completed during undergraduate studies, students should consult with a faculty adviser in order to obtain exemption from a required course.
