DO/MBA Program

The DO/MBA dual degree pathway allows students to combine osteopathic medical education with graduate training in business administration through the OSU Spears School of Business. The program prepares future physicians for leadership roles in health care organizations, physician practice management, entrepreneurship, consulting, and health system administration.

Students may apply approved coursework from the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine curriculum toward MBA degree requirements, reducing the number of additional graduate credit hours needed to earn both degrees.

When Completed: During medical school

Credit Sharing: Up to 12 of 36 credit hours may be applied toward the MBA degree, including 9 hours of approved DO coursework and 3 hours of advanced standing credit.

Application Timing: Prior to or during medical school, based on program requirements.
