Students apply to the dual degree program as incoming freshmen and are admitted directly into the graduate program at the same time as their admission as undergraduate students. Dual degree students are guaranteed a place in the Master of Science in Chemistry program provided they continue, as undergraduate students, to meet program-specific criteria to progress into enrollment in the graduate program. Dual degree students, therefore, have a space reserved for them in the graduate program beginning in their first year, with clear criteria and achievements required to progress into the graduate program.
Students in the 4+1 MS in Chemistry Dual Degree program complete their baccalaureate degree in four years of undergraduate study and complete the Master of Science in Chemistry in one year of graduate study. The ability to earn both an undergraduate and a graduate degree in five years (versus the typical two-year time frame to earn the MS in Chemistry degree after graduation) offers students significant cost savings and the ability to enter the workforce with advanced credentials one year earlier.
Combined with advisement from their undergraduate academic advisor, students鈥� engagement with the College of Arts & Sciences and participation in activities and programs offered by the Chemistry program provide strong support toward successful progression into graduate study.
Criteria to Progress to the Master of Science in Chemistry Program
Students admitted to the dual degree program must continue, as undergraduate students, to meet program-specific criteria in order to progress to enrollment in the MS in Chemistry program, as outlined below.
