Dual Degree Programs
The University of Michigan is home to several highly-ranked professional schools and international area studies centers. The University is also recognized as a leader in cross-disciplinary research and teaching.
The Ford School has developed dual degrees with many professional programs, enabling students to complete work on two degrees simultaneously, in less time than it would take to pursue each degree separately.
