Bachelor’s–Accelerated Master’s Program

The Bachelor’s–Accelerated Master’s (BAM) degree program offers currently enrolled Ăĺ±±˝űµŘ undergraduate students the opportunity to receive a bachelor’s and master’s degree in a shorter period of time. You will receive the bachelor’s degree first, but begin taking graduate coursework as an undergraduate (typically in your junior year). Because some courses are allowed to double count for both the bachelor’s andĚý master’s degrees, you will earn a master’s degree in less time and at a lower cost than if you were to enroll in a stand-alone master’s degree program after completion of your baccalaureate degree. In addition, staying at Ăĺ±±˝űµŘ to pursue a bachelor’s–accelerated master’s program enables you to continue working with your established faculty mentors.

Our Program:

  • BS in Environmental Engineering plus an MS in Environmental Engineering, MS in Civil Engineering, or MS in Mechanical Engineering
