Program Overview

The MBA degree program focuses on the intersection of technology management and innovation, and aligns perfectly with many students’ aspirations. The accelerated co-terminal timeline allows most students to complete their bachelor’s degree and MBA in five years.

New Credit-Sharing Policy
Rensselaer undergraduates pursuing a master’s degree through the Lally School of Management now have the opportunity to take advantage of a newly approved credit-sharing policy. Under this policy, eligible students may share up to six (6) credits between their bachelor’s and master’s degrees. This provides added flexibility in planning coursework, helps reduce the total cost of completing both degrees, and enables students to accelerate their graduate studies without extending their time at RPI.
