A '''double''' '''int degree''', '''simultaneous degree''' or '''double graduation''' program, involves a student's working for two different [[university]] degrees in parallel, either at the same institution or at different institutio |

==Overview== |
|||
[[Undergraduate|Undergradua]][[Master's degree|Master's]] double degree programs are more widespread. Interest in double degree programs between member nations has spread in the European [[European Union|Union]], as the gaining of qualifications from more than one country is seen as an advantage in the European labour market. |
|||
Typically in a double degree program both of the participating institutions reduce the amount of time required to be spent at each. Common [[Undergraduate]] double degrees include Engineering and Economics program, Engineering and Business program such as [[Business and Computing]]. They often take 4–5 years to complete instead of 7–8 years to complete separate degrees. Common [[Postgraduate education|postgraduate]] double degrees are [[J.D./M.B.A.]] degrees, as well as [[M.B.A.]] and J.D. degrees combined with M.A. fields such as [[political science|politics]], [[economics]], [[urban planning]], and [[international relations]]. Many [[medical school]]s also offer joint [[Doctor of Medicine|M.D.]] or [[Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine|D.O.]] degrees with J.D. and M.B.A. programs, as well as with a range of M.A. programs. Some universities even offer dual [[Ph.D./M.B.A]] degree, Ph.D. portion is mainly in science and engineering, which target entrepreneurs and venture capitalists. |

==Double majors and double degrees== |

ach with its own field of study. In some schools, students will earn a double major when the two majors lead to the same degree name (such as: B.A., B.S., B.F.A.) and they will earn a double degree when the two majors lead to differently-named degrees (such as: B.A. and B.M., B.S. and B.F.A.). In general, the number of hours and required courses are more in a dual-degree program than a double major. |
|||
==Dual degree programs== |
|||
In the [[United States]], a dual degree program is based on a formalherher candidates study simultaneously for a [[Bachelor of Arts]] and a [[Bachelor of Education]]. These are known as "concurrent-education" programs. |
|||
In [[India]], integrated dual degree programs- Bachelor's degree and master's degree in 5 years, are commonly floated by the [[Indian Institutes of Technology]] ([[IITs]]). |
