Coordinated and Dual Degrees

Rice MBA/PSM Program

The business school offers a three-year coordinated MBA/PSM degree option with the MBA and Professional Science Master's program at Rice's Wiess School of Natural Sciences, which offers M.S. degrees in Applied Chemical Sciences, Bioscience and Health Policy, Environmental Analysis, Energy Geoscience and Space Studies. You will complete courses in one of the four degrees along with management coursework for the MBA. You will then join the Rice Full-Time MBA program during your second year at Rice.

MD/MBA

In collaboration with the Baylor College of Medicine, the business school offers the MD/MBA dual degree program for candidates seeking to integrate business knowledge with expertise in medical schools, physician groups, hospitals and managed care organizations. The U.S. healthcare industry faces many challenges such as sky-rocketing costs, increasing demand, inadequate access to healthcare, inefficiency, inconsistent quality of services, non-uniform processes and more. Increasingly complex changes in the healthcare and life sciences industries require physicians to take on leadership roles in nontraditional capacities. You could be a part of the solution.

The dual degree requirements are completed in five years.
