Program Overview

This program gives students the opportunity to begin taking courses toward a master's degree during their junior or senior year (if undergraduate class schedule permits) and continue their eligible undergraduate Rensselaer funding for up to two semesters of graduate study.

Students working to earn a bachelor’s degree in engineering, science, or any of the many majors at Rensselaer can add a business degree to help them understand the context of the business world in which they’ll be operating. Lally undergraduate students can also add a master's degree to deepen their skills in a specific business function.

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.
