DOUBLE DEGREE PROGRAM
A double degree programme, also known as a joint degree programme, is a special study programme offered jointly by two universities, usually in different countries. Based on a special agreement between the two universities, students who are accepted into the programme can earn two official degrees. The double degree is intended to give students a competitive advantage in the job market, enabling them to move more easily between different countries and making it easier for employers to compare national qualifications.
