<p>I'm a rising college student planning on studying ChemE for undergrad. I'm in between two options for grad school:</p>
<ol>
<li>PhD in ChemE + MBA</li>
<li>MS in Biotechnology + MBA</li>
</ol>
<p>I want to work as an executive in the biotech or energy industry eventually, so which degree combo's would be better? </p>
<p>Also, to my knowledge getting a PhD usually means a 5 year program - 2 years MS and 3 years PhD. Do you need to pay for those 2 years of getting your MS or is all 5 years' tuition paid if you become a TA or something of the sort?</p>
<p>Does anyone know if there are special PhD + MBA programs that exist?</p>
