<p>Can you get an MBA while doing the PLME program? Any info is appreciated.</p>
<p>I don’t see why you couldn’t get an MBA at some point. Brown doesn’t have an MBA program, so you’d have to take time off at some point (before/during/after medical school) to do the MBA. They do have a structure in place for students to get an MPH as well as an MD.</p>
<p>Usually a prerequisite for an MBA program is an undergraduate degree so while possible, it might be more difficult to do with the rigors of medical school (although maybe possible in year 4, or slowly in year 1-2 with finishing in year 4 of med school). 20 some years ago Brown had a fairly regular number of PLME/then called MedSci students getting an MPH at Harvard before/at Brown med graduation. With Brown expanding into the MPH field don’t know if the Harvard connection is as accessible. There are quite a number of “part-time” study MBA programs now for MDs to capitalize (pun intended) on the medical experience after having been working in the field for a while. Many MBA programs want “real life” work experience to apply.</p>
