Double Degree Options
Queen’s Master of Management - Global Management program offers several opportunities to earn a second Master’s degree from one of our international business school partners while in the program. These double degree options require significantly more credits than pursuing the Queen’s Master of Management - Global Management on its own. As a result, they are of longer duration and much more challenging.
The additional months of study required for the double degrees are spent at the campus of our partner school, in fully-integrated classes shared with their domestic students. Classes are conducted in English. An outstanding opportunity for students seeking an international business career, you will develop an international network of peers that will be invaluable throughout your career. You will also benefit from the extensive resources provided by both universities, including career counseling, job and internship postings, and alumni networks. In most cases and upon completion of the program, graduates of the double degree options have the right to work in the country in which the second degree is earned.
These are highly selective programs with very limited space. Early applications are encouraged. Please speak to an Application Advisor.
Double Degree Online Application Deadline is March 11, 2011*
