Bridge the invention skills of engineering with the innovation skills of business.
Rensselaer EngMBA program engages engineering students early in their undergraduate studies and introduces them to a variety of business principles. In just five years, students earn a Bachelor of Science degree in an engineering discipline and an MBA from the Rensselaer Lally School of Management - a powerful combination to successfully lead, manage, and start companies who compete on the basis of technological advantage.
If you have been accepted by our Engineering School, you qualify for the program.
To learn more about this opportunity, attend an Information Session or simply email us at EngMBA@rpi.edu.
During the first three years, students take courses within a chosen engineering discipline. Additionally, students will benefit from leadership and management seminars, networking events, and co-curricular programs through Lally. In their fourth year, students take an equal mix of engineering and MBA courses. And in the fifth year, students focus fully on the MBA program.
Intertwined with the EngMBA curriculum, students can participate in summer internships or semester co-ops with technological, business, or entrepreneurial flavor.
To complement the EngMBA's substantial influence on their companies and the market, their earnings escalate over their careers more quickly than most engineering professions alone. The chart below shows the growth in salaries over a twenty-year career for professionals with various combinations of bachelor's and master's degrees. The EngMBA is clearly at a lifetime earning advantage.
