Dual Degree Option
It is possible to pursue two degrees simultaneously. The requirements for doing this are:
- Students pursuing two degrees must fill out a Change of Program Form for permission.
- The two degrees, as awarded by the University of New Hampshire, must be different (i.e., B.A. and B.S., or B.S. and B.S.F.). Transfer students already holding a baccalaureate degree from another accredited institution may pursue an additional baccalaureate degree at U.N.H.
- A candidate for two degrees must complete 160 credits, which is the equivalent of five years of academic work.
As soon as a student is accepted as a candidate for two degrees, the appropriate dean(s) will appoint supervisors for each of the proposed majors. The supervisors and the student will work out a basic course plan for the two degrees and inform the appropriate dual degree dean(s) of the plan. The supervisors will maintain joint control over the student's academic program. The college offices and the supervisors will receive copies of grade reports and other records for students pursuing two degrees.
