LSM Curriculum

Offered jointly by Penn’s College of Arts & Sciences and the Wharton School, LSM is a dual degree program that provides undergraduates with both a grounding in the life sciences and a core education in the principles of management. As part of LSM, students pursue an integrated bioscience and business curriculum that leads to the completion of two degrees in four years: a Bachelor of Arts degree in a science major (through the College) and a Bachelor of Science in Economics (through Wharton). In addition to their academic work, LSM students do two summer internships--one science, one business--that add a "real-world" dimension to the education they receive.
