The University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business and Curry School of Education have teamed up to offer a brand new joint MBA/MEd degree. The full time program, to be completed in just two years, aspires to train future leaders in American education. Interested applicants must apply and be accepted to both Darden and Curry and accepted students will start in the summer with a 10-day seminar at Curry, which will teach students the context for applying business approaches to the educational field. The first academic year will consist of Darden’s first-year curriculum, followed by an internship in a district, charter, non-profit or for-profit educational organization and 2-3 Curry courses in the summer. The program concludes with the completion of Curry’s required courses and Darden and Curry electives (such as School Law and Developing Organizational Capacity).
