Double Degree at Amherst

<p>Does anyone know if a double degree is possible at Amherst? Any chance this can happen through the five college consortium, especially at umass? I only know of the engineering degree from Dartmouth. Thanks!</p>

<p>Amherst does offer the opportunity to double major, which is especially achievable with the institution’s lack of distribution requirements. In the case of the class of 2011, 35% of students graduated with double majors.
Here’s a link to the major distribution:

<p>How about dual degrees? Say, get a BS with another institution</p>

<p>As far as I know, classes may be taken throughout the five college consortium or the 12 college exchange program, but degrees are only issued by your respective institution. </p>

<p>The only dual degree program I can think of at the baccalaureate level is Columbia’s program with a French University that awards degrees from both institutions.</p>
