Mar 17, 2011 · On the tour of RPI, my guide mentioned a 5-year masters program. What I would like to know, however, is if an accelerated masters program could be paired with a dual major. For example, could I potentially receive two masters degrees in 5 years? Could I receive a bachelors for one major and a masters for the other?
