About the Program
M.E.T. at a Glance: One Program, Two Bachelor of Science (BS) Degrees
The Industrial Engineering and Operations Research and Business Administration simultaneous degree is part of the Management, Entrepreneurship, & Technology Program. The M.E.T. Program aims to educate leaders with a seamless understanding of technology innovation, from idea to real-world impact.
M.E.T. students earn two Bachelor of Science degrees in one program that combines the best of the top-ranked College of Engineering and Haas School of Business. The integrated curriculum is completed in four years. Internships, career coaching and other enrichment activities provide ample opportunity for hands-on experience with innovation and entrepreneurship. Each M.E.T. cohort is small, allowing for close mentoring and a tight-knit community.
Admission to the M.E.T. Program
The M.E.T. Program seeks inquisitive, self-motivated students with a passion for finding and solving big problems. It is highly competitive and is only open to freshmen during the UC application period.
For further information, please see the M.E.T. website.
Accreditation
The IEOR undergraduate degree program in the College of Engineering is accredited by ABET. The Undergraduate Business Degree Program is accredited by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).

College Requirements
University of California Requirements
All students who enter the University of California as freshmen must demonstrate their command of the English language by fulfilling the Entry Level Writing Requirement. Fulfillment of this requirement is also a prerequisite to enrollment in all reading and composition courses at UC Berkeley.
American History and American Institutions
The American History and Institutions requirements are based on the principle that a US resident who graduates from an American university should have an understanding of the history and governmental institutions of the United States.
Campus Requirement
American Cultures (AC) is the one requirement that all undergraduate students at UC Berkeley need to take and pass in order to graduate. The requirement offers an exciting intellectual environment centered on the study of race, ethnicity, and culture of the United States. AC courses offer students opportunities to be part of research-led, highly accomplished teaching environments, grappling with the complexity of American culture.
M.E.T. Program Requirements
Reading and Composition
Two Reading and Composition (R&C) courses must be taken for a letter grade (C- or better required), and must be completed by no later than the end of the sophomore year (4th semester of enrollment). The first half of R&C, the “A” course, must be completed by the end of the freshman year; the second half of R&C, the “B “course, by no later than the end of the sophomore year or a student's registration will be blocked. View a detailed list of courses that fulfill Reading and Composition requirements.
Breadth Requirement
The undergraduate breadth requirement provides Berkeley students with a rich and varied educational experience outside of their major program. As the foundation of a liberal arts education, breadth courses give students a view into the intellectual life of the University while introducing them to a multitude of perspectives and approaches to research and scholarship. Engaging students in new disciplines and with peers from other majors, the breadth experience strengthens interdisciplinary connections and context that prepare Berkeley graduates to understand and solve the complex issues of their day.
Students in the M.E.T. Program must successfully complete six breadth courses, one in each of the following categories:
Philosophy and Values (will be satisfied with UGBA 107)
Physical Science (will be satisfied with Physics 7B)
Social and Behavioral Sciences (will be satisfied with Econ 1)
- With the exception of UGBA 107, UGBA courses cannot be used to fulfill breadth requirements.
- With the exception of Econ 1, microeconomics and macroeconomics at any level (Econ 2, Econ 3, Econ 100A/B, Econ 101A/B, IAS 106/107) cannot be used to fulfill breadth requirements.

- No more than two courses from any one department may be used to satisfy the breadth requirement (L&S Discovery courses are exempt).
- Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate exams cannot be used to fulfill the breadth requirement. Some A-Level exams are accepted, but a maximum of two A-Level exams may be used to fulfill breadth requirements.
- Two of the breadth courses must be upper-division (courses numbered 100-196).
- Courses numbered 97, 98, 99, or above 196 may not be used to complete any breadth requirement.
- Breadth courses must be a minimum of 3 semester units.
- Reading & Composition courses cannot be used to fulfill breadth requirements.
Class Schedule Requirements
- Minimum units per semester: 13
- Maximum units per semester: 20.5
- Students in the M.E.T. Program must enroll each semester in no fewer than two technical courses (of a minimum of 3 units each) required of the engineering major program of study in which the student is officially declared.
Minimum Academic (Grade) Requirements
- A minimum overall and semester grade point average of 2.000 (C average) is required. Students will be subject to dismissal from the University if during any fall or spring semester their overall U.C. GPA falls below a 2.000, or their semester GPA is less than 2.000.
- Students must achieve a minimum GPA of 2.000 (C average) in upper division technical courses each semester. Students will be subject to dismissal from the University if their upper division technical GPA falls below 2.000.
- A minimum overall GPA of 2.000, and a minimum 2.000 GPA in upper division technical course work required of the major are required to graduate.
Unit Requirements
- A minimum of 120 units are required to graduate.
- A maximum of 16 units of Special Studies coursework (courses numbered 97, 98, 99, 197, 198, or 199) will count towards the 120 units; a maximum of four are allowed in a given semester.
- A maximum of four units of Physical Education from any school attended will count towards the 120 units.
- No more than 1/3 of a student's total UC Berkeley units may be taken Pass/No Pass, including physical education courses, Education Abroad Program, or courses taken on another UC campus.
