JD/MS in Engineering Management

College of Engineering | School of Law


From patent law to in-house counsel, or helping to launch a medical or tech startup, pairing your JD with a Master of Science in Engineering Management is a powerful combination. Our interdisciplinary program integrates engineering and business courses that will prepare you to help your organization make the most effective use of its resources: people, equipment, capital, materials, information, and energy. Pursuing both degrees together will save you time and more than $10,000 in tuition. As a full-time student, you can complete both degrees in three years. Part-time students will finish in four years.

Admissions Process

Current Western New England University JD candidates can apply for admission for the JD/MS in Engineering Management Dual Degree Program upon completing at least one semester of full-time study or three semesters of part-time study in the JD program. Applications are processed on a rolling basis. Applicants will be evaluated based on their performance to date in the JD program, as well as their undergraduate academic record. A baccalaureate degree in engineering or related discipline is required for admission.

Program Costs

Dual degree candidates will be billed in four installments once they register for their first graduate business course. A charge will be posted for a total of four semesters. The installments will be based on current graduate tuition rates and be adjusted annually. As a result of the cross-credits shared by both degree programs, dual degree candidates will save over $10,000 in tuition. Candidates completing graduate business courses after the four installments are paid will not be charged for any remaining graduate business courses.
