Joint Degree Program EdD in Higher Education & MBA


The joint Ed.D. in Higher Education Administration with the MBA is a combined educational leadership and business program that allows students to obtain both an Ed.D. and a MBA degree in five years, instead of the six years that would be required if each were pursued separately.  Candidates interested in this joint degree program must apply to and gain acceptance by both the Graduate School of Education and the Mason School of Business MBA program.
