For highly motivated students with specific career goals, Rice University currently offers a dual MD/MBA degree. The Rice MBA pairs with a medical degree from Baylor College of Medicine.
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.
