will count toward your PhD (72 credits total reduced to 42)
Biology, BS/ Biology, Accelerated MS
Both a BS and an MS within an accelerated time frame.
only for MS with concentrations in microbiology or molecular biology.
After completing 90 undergraduate credits, up to 6 graduate credits may be also used for BS degree. (apply 1 year ahead! Talk with your adviser)
Students with an overall GPA of at least 3.00 may apply for provisional acceptance to the accelerated master’s program after completing BIOL 213, 303, 304, 305/306, 307, and 311; and CHEM 315 and 318; or after completing 75 undergraduate credits including BIOL 494.
Students would have provisional status before graduation from BS
