SI offers dual-degree programs to help students create specialized academic programs to meet their specific career interests. In addition to the formalized dual-degrees listed below, students can also initiate a dual degree with any other academic unit on campus. A dual degree allows students to double count some credits and thus shorten the completion time for both programs. To apply for dual degree or certificate programs, you must apply and be admitted to each department separately, and then work to develop your academic plan together.
