The BS in Biology/MBA dual-degree program provides the type of broad training that contemporary employers in these industries value. It is the first program of its type in the Chicago area. Biology majors admitted to the five-year program can take up to three of the required MBA courses listed above during their senior year. The MBA courses are taught in the evening on a quarter system, with the first quarter beginning at approximately the same time as the fall semester.
Course waivers are determined upon admission to the MBA program. Ideally, biology majors will be waived from ISSCM 400, ISSCM 491 and ECON 420. Thus, they will take ACCT 400 and MARK 460 during their senior year. These graduate courses can be applied as six hours of free electives toward the BS in Biology degree.
