Overview

The Business Administration - Engineering programme from University of California, Berkeley enables students to earn two master’s degrees in the time it takes to complete just one, and at a lower cost than enrolling in each programme separately.

Applicants who have a technical undergraduate education can earn in four semesters a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree from the Haas School of Business and a Master of Engineering (MEng) degree in one of seven departments at the College of Engineering, that are ranked among the highest in the world.

Key facts

The concurrent degree is designed to help address the need in the high-tech industry for leaders who possess both technical skills and business acumen.

Academic excellence combined with the innovation culture of the San Francisco Bay Area makes UC Berkeley the perfect place to prepare graduates from this selective programme to be leaders in technological innovation and entrepreneurship.

The four-semester MBA/MEng is fully integrated, with students taking courses in both business and engineering.

Special interdisciplinary courses will also be offered for students in the concurrent degree. An integral part of the programme is an interdisciplinary capstone project in which student teams will grapple with real-world challenges faced by companies or nonprofit or governmental organizations involving an array of business and engineering issues.

Students will have special extracurricular opportunities, including small-group meetings with executives from major technology-oriented corporations and start-ups, and tours at well-known companies in the San Francisco Bay Area.
