<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I wanted to know where all one can get a <em>good</em> joint degree in engg. and management/engg. and economics.</p>
<p>Right now I only know about UPenn's M&T program.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Yay for M&T!</p>
<p>CMU offers something along these lines, and I've heard MIT is trying to get into it also (obviously they are very strong for engineering, and sloan is no slouch either - its just ease of "jnt-ing the degrees" that's hard.</p>
<p>CMU has their informational systems program (I think that's what it's called, it's abbreviated IS) and a 5 year undergrad CS/Engineering and MBA program that's quite competitive and involves summer internships.</p>
<p>At most schools, there is no such true 'joint' dual-bachelor's program, rather you just go around and complete all the requirements for both bachelor's degrees to get both. For example, at MIT, some people complete dual bachelor's in engineering and Sloan. I know one girl at MIT who completed a BS and MEng in EECS asd well as a BS from Sloan, all in 5 years. Other people manage to complete an engineering bachelor's and a busad bachelor's at Berkeley. Again, it's not 'joint' - you have to be the one to mold everything together yourself - but it's doable.</p>
<p>If you want to talk about truly integrated programs at the graduate school level, perhaps the most prominent is the LFM program at MIT - where you get both a MS in any engineering you want (except nuclear) and an MBA from Sloan, all in 2 years. </p>

<p>Northwestern runs a similar integrated program called the Kellogg MMM program. It takes less time than does LFM (LFM requires all your summers, MMM does not), but MMM only gives you the choice of getting a master's in Engineering Management, not a a master's in whatever engineering you want, the way that LFM allows.</p>

<p>A similar sort or thing is arranged by TMI at Michigan.</p>

<p>nice info sakky. I imagine that graduates of the LFM program are highly recruited</p>
<p>I believe joint degrees can be great and offer flexibility. Some good combinations would be Mining and Civil Engineering together as well a Mechanical and Electrical and Chemical and Electrical. Of course, combining engineering with business at the UG level is great too.</p>
