I respect your opinion, @eyemgh. He’s talking about doing the IBE and then hanging around for a 5th year to complete the coursework. Obviously it would be cheaper to do 4 years of engineering and to later have his employer pay for the MBA. Cost aside, what do you think of the proposed 5 year plan with a double major, one of which is IBE, which is an honors track? I assume there is some prestige which would come with having a program like that from a school like Lehigh on the resume. Just wondering how the 2 options compare.
