<p>Is it possible to have a dual degree at Stanford after transferring from a top 20 school as some credits may be lost ?</p>
<p>Yes, but you will have to crunch in a lot of units per quarter and do it in majors that have lower unit requirements.</p>
<p>so is it possible when they are industrial engineering and econs ?</p>
<p>are you transferring as a sophomore? if you only have 2 years at Stanford, it will be tough - best way to find out is to ask the departments for unit requirements and then do the math.</p>
<p>yea i don’t think anyone here will be able to answer your question. call your departments and you’ll find out. also, there isn’t a industrial engineering major here. closest thing is mechanical engineering</p>
<p>What do you mean by “dual”? Do you mean double major? If so, then having 2 years to finish would make it difficult. Consider that students who start as freshmen sometimes have difficulty double-majoring because Stanford has strict requirements on what classes can be double-counted. Of course, it depends on what you’re majoring in (e.g. some engineering majors would make it hard).</p>
<p>If you mean “dual degree” in the Stanford lingo, then you might look at this:</p>
<p>[Dual</a> Bachelor’s Degrees (Concurrent B.A. and B.S.)](<a href=“http://exploredegrees.stanford.edu/4872.htm]Dual”>http://exploredegrees.stanford.edu/4872.htm)</p>
<p>225 units are required, so you’d have 3 years. I think that’d be more manageable, but again, totally depends on what you’re majoring in and in how many units transfer over.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’d always thought industrial engineering was like operations research, which is like MS&E. I could be totally wrong.</p>
<p>edit: to the OP, if you’re interested in MS&E and econ, that might be a little tough because there’s already overlap (and Stanford doesn’t let you double-count the requirements), but again it’s very case-dependent, so you’ll have to work out a plan and see whether it’s viable.</p>
