Loyola’s five year dual-degree in Environmental Science or Environmental Studies and Business Administration introduces students to the fundamental issues involved in global, environmental and ethical business practices. The academic content and direct, hands-on experiences within the Bachelor’s degrees will provide a base from which to develop skills and knowledge in the MBA program to promote and implement sustainable business practices.

Students interested in pursuing one of the five-year dual-degree program will complete all normal requirements for a BA in Environmental studies or a BS in Environmental Science. Dual-degree students may take two graduate courses that count toward the MBA during their senior year in lieu of Environmental Science/Studies electives.

5-year program tips

In addition to completing the normal requirements for the BS Environmental Science or BA Environmental Studies students planning to enter the MBA program should do the following:

Freshman/Sophomore Years: Arrange undergraduate course scheduling to preserve six hours of free electives until their senior year. During their first two years, students should take ECON 201 and ECON 202, which will satisfy the social science requirement of the Core Curriculum and allow the student to waive out of ECON 420. Take MATH 131 or 161 to waive out of ISOM 400.

Junior Year (2nd semester): Take the GMAT and make formal application to the MBA program. Take STAT 103 to waive out of ISOM 491.

Senior Year: Take ACCT 400 and MARK 460, which will count as free electives toward the BS or BA degree. Complete all requirements for the BS or BA.

Fifth Year: During the fifth year, students who have followed the above directions will have a total of 14 MBA courses remaining. These courses can be completed full-time at the rate of three or four per quarter (including the summer quarter). Students also have the option to complete the MBA program on a part-time basis (usually one or two courses per quarter).
