Joint & Specialized Degree Programs

The Simon School offers an array of programs that allow students to receive a first-rate business education tailored to their specific needs.

M.D./M.B.A. Program

Along with the Simon School, the School of Medicine and Dentistry offers a combined M.D./M.B.A. degree program in Health Sciences Management.

Students must complete the M.B.A. core as full-time Simon School students and then the first two years of the M.D. program as full-time medical school students.
