The business & tech degree

Bring together technical expertise and business tools in Yale SOM’s joint-degree program with the Yale School of Engineering & Applied Sciences, which enables you to pursue both an MBA and a master’s in computer science, engineering, or another technical field.

The MBA has fundamentally changed how I approach engineering, teaching me to ground technical decisions in questions of incentives, institutions, and human behavior. It pushed me to see algorithms not just as systems to optimize, but as choices embedded in markets, governance structures, and social impact. At the same time, it strengthened my management toolkit, giving me clearer intuition for how to align cross-functional teams, navigate ambiguity, and design products that are not only technically sound but organizationally viable.
