A Double Degree program offers students the opportunity to earn two university degrees through a unique international partnership between Brock University and a partner university abroad. Students study in both Canada and overseas, gaining international academic experience, cross-cultural skills, and global perspectives while completing the requirements for two recognized degrees — all within one integrated program.
Designed for students seeking a global edge, Double Degree programs combine academic excellence, international mobility, and career-ready experiences that prepare graduates to succeed in an increasingly connected world.
Why choose a Double Degree?
How it works
Students complete their degree across two institutions, beginning their studies at Brock University before spending a year abroad at one of Brock’s international partner universities. This integrated pathway allows students to gain international academic experience while working toward two degrees.
Typical program structure
Year 1
Study at
Brock University (Canada).
Year 2
Continue studies at Brock University (Canada).
Year 3
Study abroad at a partner university.
Year 4
Return to Brock University to complete the program.
Goodman School of Business pathway
Students in the Goodman School of Business typically complete Years 3 and 4 abroad at the partner institution.
What does it cost?
A Double Degree offers students an affordable way to earn two internationally recognized degrees while gaining valuable global experience.
- Pay tuition only to Brock University for all four years, including your time studying abroad
- Save on international tuition costs while still accessing a world-class global education experience
- Continue receiving renewable Brock scholarships as long as eligibility requirements are maintained
- Remain eligible for OSAP funding while studying abroad as a full-time student
- Invest in your future through international learning, cultural experiences, and career-ready skill development
Students are responsible for travel, housing, and day-to-day living expenses during their time abroad. However, the Double Degree structure helps make international study more financially accessible compared to completing two separate degrees independently.
