Concurrent Bachelors and Masters Degrees
The concurrent B.S./M.S. degree in Computer Science offers highly motivated students the opportunity for accelerated study. In this track, students have the opportunity to complete both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in as few as five years of study (ten semesters). The M.S. Computer Science degree has both a non-thesis (industry-based project) and thesis (academic research) option available. Click here for application instructions
Note: Students that declare concurrent enrollment will be classified by the university as graduate students. If you receive an undergraduate-level scholarships, you will need to check with your scholarship provider if you will maintain eligibility if you change to graduate student status.
Concurrent Graduate Degrees
A concurrent degree program is a program of study for two degrees in which the requirements for two separate majors are met. Two awarded master’s degrees require at least 22 hours of non-overlapping graduate credit in each major. If the two degrees are thesis or non-thesis degrees, they require two terminal projects (theses or creative components, respectively). These two degrees do not have to be awarded during the same term, since requirements for each are completed separately. Click here for application instructions.
