Accelerated B.S. and M.S.
If you're interested in fast-tracking your advanced education, the accelerated B.S. and M.S. program is for you.
The accelerated program allows qualified students to earn both a B.S. and M.S. in a minimum of five years by completing approved graduate courses during the senior year of their undergraduate program.
Students in the program may count nine hours of graduate courses toward both the B.S. and M.S. degrees. Thus, the two degrees may be earned with a minimum of 141 credits rather than the 150 credits necessary if the two degrees are pursued separately.
Degree Options
B.S. in Chemistry and M.S. in Chemistry
Students in this program can earn both the B.S. in chemistry with a concentration in chemical science and the M.S. in chemistry. Students will receive advanced training in chemistry through a combination of laboratory and classroom work and may have the ability to design and incorporate graduate courses in another discipline as part of the accelerated program based on their career objectives.
B.S. in Chemistry and M.S. in Forensic Science
Students in this program can earn both the B.S. in chemistry with a concentration in chemical science and the M.S. in forensic science with a concentration in forensic chemistry/drugs and toxicology. Students will have both foundational work in chemistry and advanced training in forensic science through a combination of laboratory and classroom work.
