Accelerated pathway dual degree programs provide academically outstanding students
an accelerated pathway to complete an undergraduate and a master’s degree in a reduced
period of time. Accelerated pathway dual degree programs provide senior students permission
to take a specified number of master’s level courses as electives toward completion
of their bachelor’s degree. The students then apply to the relevant graduate program
and if accepted, the previously completed graduate coursework during the senior year
is counted as transfer credit toward the completion of the master’s degree.
