MS＆E希望将其分析和管理技能应用到公共政策领域的MS学生可以同时攻读MS＆E硕士学位和公共政策硕士学位。MPP是一个为期两年的学位课程，但是修读联合课程的MS MS＆E学生可以在至少两年的时间内获得两个学位，具体取决于先前的准备和选修课程，方法是将最多45个季度的课程单元数度。进入管理科学与工程学系后，入学或在读硕士的学生均要求将其申请文件转发给MPP计划主任以供审核。参加联合课程的学生通常会在第一年的大部分时间里修读MS＆E核心和集中课程。第二年通常专注于MPP的核心，专长和实践。联合学位要求90个四
MS&E MS students who wish to apply their analytical and management skills to the field of public policy can simultaneously pursue a master's degree in MS&E and a master's degree in Public Policy. The MPP is a two-year degree program, but MS MS&E students who pursue the joint program can earn both degrees in a minimum of two years, depending on prior preparation and elective choices, by counting up to 45 quarter units of course work toward both degrees. After admission to the Department of Management Science and Engineering, incoming or current MS students request that their application file be forwarded to the MPP program director for review. Students in the joint program normally will spend most of their first year taking MS&E core and concentration courses. The second year is typically devoted to the MPP core, concentration, and practicum. The joint degree requires 90 quarter units.
