Master of Management Risk and Analytics

Introduction

The MRA/MBA dual degree program is designed to provide our students with an opportunity to further enhance their business, risk management and analytical skills. 

Students who wish to pursue the dual degree option may complete them in either order and may share up to 12 hours of coursework between programs. Interested students may apply to the MBA program while enrolled in the MRA program or vice versa. If admitted, students will work with an advisor to map out a course plan.

Applying to the MRA and MBA Programs

Interested students must apply to each program separately and should contact an admissions representative from both MRA and MBA. Candidates do not need to apply to both programs at the same time, but both degree requirements must be completed within six years. 

Requirements

All dual degree students will work with an MBA and MRA Advisor to develop a plan that meets the requirements for each program. 

At a minimum, dual-degree MBA/MRA students must complete all degree requirements including:

MBA

12 hours of MBA coursework may be shared with the MRA program with approval from MRA and MBA Advisors.

• Core Classes: 20 Hours
