To enhance their graduate education and professional opportunities, numerous SAIS students pursue dual-degree programs in business, law, public administration and public health. SAIS offers partnerships with leading graduate schools in the United States and around the world. Students may also create ad hoc dual-degree programs with other prominent universities.
For those accepted to a dual-degree program, SAIS reduces the number of required courses from 16 to 12 in recognition of course work taken at another approved school. Students in the dual-degree program receive a quarter/semester of advanced standing at each school, allowing them to complete the two degrees in one year less than traditionally required.
