dual-degree
Twin credential program
A dual-degree program allows a student to earn two separate degrees simultaneously, typically from different departments or institutions: She's in a dual-degree program for law and business.
The arrangement saves time compared to pursuing each degree sequentially.
Also called a joint degree, though some institutions distinguish between the two.
