The Schools of Management and Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences provide a combined five-year program that awards both a Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree. This accelerated dual-degree option shortens the traditional four-year PharmD and two-year MBA sequence by one full year. The MBA serves as a powerful complement to various professional degrees, delivering business expertise alongside specialized training. The School of Management features six such combined programs: the MBAAuD for speech-language specialists, the MBAReal Estate Development MS for urban planners, the MBADDS for dental students, the MBAMPH for public health practitioners, and an MBA track designed for surgical residents.
