BS/MS Combined Degree in Chemistry
This is a five-year undergraduate/graduate accelerated track. Students who complete this track receive both BS and MS degrees. Students must elect this track in their Freshman, Sophomore or Junior year. Chemistry and Biochemistry concentrations are available at the undergraduate level. Students are required to complete 150 credits of undergraduate (120 credits) and graduate (30 credits) level courses and a thesis.
The thesis involves six (6) credits of original research.
