UNC has launched a dual-degree executive master of business administration program with Tsinghua University in China.
The program is meant to combine business and engineering.
The dual-degree program is the only partnership of its kind between a top industrial engineering department in China and a top United States business school.
Those who graduate from the special program will receive an MBA from UNC and a master’s in engineering management from Tsinghua University.
The dual-degree is called the Global Supply Chain Leaders Program.
Beijing will be the site of one-third of the program’s classes, while two-thirds of the classes will be taught in Chapel Hill.
Tuition for the dual-degree program is $60,000.
