About the course

The BS/MS option permits the student to achieve both a Bachelor?s and a Master?s degree in five years, rather than the usual six years required. This option provides exposure to graduate courses and research, making easier the transition from BS-MS to PhD-level study. For those going directly into teaching or industry, the master?s degree typically yields a significant increase in starting salary. By counting some beginning graduate courses also as senior chemistry courses, this combined program permits the student to achieve both degrees in 143 credits, fewer than the total if the two degree programs were taken separately. Two summers of research are necessary. Entrance into this program requires approval of the department. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
