The linked BSCS/MBA program is an early entry in the MBA program of study. The linked program is designed for well qualified non-business undergraduates, allowing them to start their MBA program prior to completing the BSCS degree. Students will take MBA-level courses as early as three semesters prior to graduation and count up to 12 graduate credits toward their undergraduate degree. BSCS majors will be able to count the graduate level courses as the technical electives (2) and upper division general education courses (2). A computer science degree prepares students well for the professional workforce as problem solvers. Channel that knowledge to managing a business or organization.
