Interdisciplinary Programs

Suffolk University offers advanced degree programs that draw on resources and expertise from across the institution—the College of Arts & Sciences, the Sawyer Business School, and the Law School. With these dual-degree and cross-disciplinary options, you can prepare to excel in highly interdependent fields: healthcare, law, finance, data analytics, public policy and administration, and more.

Dual-Degree Programs

Expand your career options by enhancing your education—while savings time and tuition. Suffolk's dual-degree options let you earn two advanced degrees simultaneously, increasing your demand in the job market. Some of these combinations span between our college, business school, and law school, granting you access to a wide range of knowledge and resources.

Looking for focused instruction in key areas of your discipline to help you stay professionally competitive? Suffolk offers over 30 certificate programs in areas like finance, healthcare management, public administration, and marketing. Most of these programs can be completed in less than a year and stack toward a master's degree.

Microcredential Programs

Suffolk's 3-credit academic microcredentials empower you to upskill on your schedule. With 90 cutting-edge courses in areas like business, analytics, and healthcare, you can deepen your knowledge to boost your career. You can also stack these short courses and build them toward a graduate certificate or degree.

Suffolk University is pleased to offer merit and federal loan funding to eligible graduate students. All graduate students are automatically considered for merit funding at the time of admission to the University. No separate application is required for merit consideration. Recipients are selected based on the applicant's academic credentials presented on the admission application. International students, while not eligible for federal aid, are also considered for merit funding at the time of admission.
