Although it involves a significant investment of time and money, a dual-degree program can be the ticket to a recession-proof, lucrative career. For those with very specific career goals, the dual degree may present benefits that a single MBA degree may not. These include being able to assume leadership roles in nontraditional MBA careers, increased job options due to specializing in two fields instead of one, and greater leverage when negotiating for salary and promotions. Students who want to pair the MBA with another degree have more options than ever before -- and post-graduate jobs to boot. Consulting firms, hospitals, and nonprofit organizations all hire dual-degree recipients. Today, we're speaking to schools and students who are going down the dual degree path and getting their advice for applicants considering similar paths.
