Markets & Management Studies

Program Requirements

Today´s businesses are influenced by global events, global supply chains, foreign governments, and consumers from all over the world. The Markets and Management Studies Department encourages students to take advantage of study abroad opportunities, business internships, and Duke Engage experiences to build their knowledge of global business practices. There are several study abroad opportunities with course content that will count towards the MMS certificate. The Duke in Geneva program offers a course in International Business and the Duke in Montreal Program offers a Marketing course. Other programs (both Duke and non- Duke ones) may offer courses that count towards the certificate. Contact the Duke Global Education office for more information http://studyabraod.duke.edu.

The Markets & Management Studies Certificate is open to all undergraduates. The certificate requirements are:

  • A total of seven courses: at least three core courses, one of which is MMS 190 (an integrative Capstone course taken in the senior year), and four elective courses. Students may use additional core courses to fulfill their elective requirement.
  • A progress requirement: a minimum of three M&M courses must be taken by the end of the junior year, and one of these must be a core course.
  • No more than three courses may originate in a single department.
  • No more than two courses that are used to satisfy the requirements of any major, minor, or other certificate program can count toward the Markets & Management Studies certificate.
