    About Certificate in Engineering Business

    Northeastern’s Galante Engineering Business program offers a progressive, multidegree opportunity for engineering students to complement their technical engineering education with business skills. The result is the potential for a three-degree program in which students leverage courses across BS, MS, and MBA curricula to achieve a unique set of technical, engineering management, and business skills while earning a certificate and potentially three degrees (BS/MS/MBA) from Northeastern University.

    Program participants will also benefit from regular access to and participation in specially designed programmatic elements such as workshops, speaker series, site visits, seminars, and other related personal and professional development activities as a connected cohort. Each participant creates an individualized personal development plan to combine available programmatic elements into a unique co-curricular set of activities to complement coursework. Because of the co-curricular programmatic elements, this program is intended for full-time on-campus students.

    This program is offered only to Northeastern University undergraduate students.
