Earn your non-thesis, or professional, master's degree in engineering from the College of Engineering plus the STEM-designated One-Year MBA from the Mitch Daniels School of Business in just two years.
Purdue University offers a unique dual degree opportunity that allows students to earn both a Master of Science in Engineering and an MBA from the Mitch Daniels School of Business. This integrated path is designed for students who want to combine deep technical expertise with strategic business and leadership skills, all in an efficient timeframe.
| MS(E) + MBA Credits Overview | |

When you apply, select your engineering major as your first-choice program and the One-Year MBA as your second-choice program. Simply notify the Daniels School of Business Master's Office via email ( businessgradadmissions@purdue.edu) once you receive admission to your first-choice engineering program, and we will handle it from there!
Requirements for dual degree applicants are the same for each program — engineering requirements remain applicable for the engineering degree and MBA admissions apply for the business degree. Please complete one academic statement of purpose and one personal history statement that addresses both the engineering and business programs.
If you are already enrolled in an engineering master's program and want to add a business master's degree, please submit a new MBA application.
Dual MS(E)+MBA students save the equivalent of 15 credit hours of time and money and, on average, up to a semester of school.
The cost of attending Purdue varies depending on enrollment in a specific program or college, food and travel expenses, and other variables. The Office of the Bursar website shows estimated costs for the current aid year for students by semester and academic year. These amounts are used in determining a student's estimated eligibility for financial aid. You can also use our tuition calculator to estimate tuition costs.
