Graduate Double Major

Graduate Double Major

This policy only applies to the M.S. Health Informatics (HIF) and M.S. Health Care Administration (HCA) Programs.

Graduate students may pursue both majors (HIF & HCA) concurrently. Students will earn one degree (MS) with two majors (HCA & HI) on their official transcript. Only one diploma will be awarded and both majors will be listed in the commencement brochure. Students pursuing a double major are required to follow all graduate policies and degree requirements. A maximum or 9 credits from one major can be used in the other major.

In order to pursue a double major at the graduate level, students must first apply and be accepted to either the M.S. in HIF or M.S. in HCA program.  Once accepted into one of the programs, the student must declare the double major before thier final semester begins. Students must seek permission from the Program Director and obtain the “Declare a Graduate Double Major” form. The Director and student will complete the form and forward it to the Registrar’s Office for processing.                        

Note: Graduate Second Degree: The earning of a second degree is for students who already graduated with an MS degree and wish to come back to earn another.
