You can earn two master’s degrees in related areas of interest in fewer credit hours than if you obtained each degree separately. By completing the dual degree option, you will have a richer education experience than you would receive through an individual degree. Upon graduation, you are more marketable because you will have a deeper awareness and knowledge of the types of organizations in which you may work. The dual degree programs are recommended if you are planning to:
- Pursue a doctoral degree
- Work in research
- Enter a specialized profession requiring in-depth knowledge of two related areas
