Key 4+1 Accelerated degree Program Features
4+1 students would be permitted to take graduate classes as part of their academic studies. Normally, this process would begin at the conclusion of the studentās junior year.
The total credit hours for the combined BS/MS degree would be 150 hours, i.e., the same as it would be if students took the two degrees separately.
Undergrad course requirements would be the same as they are now, with this exception. Two graduate courses required for the MS ISTM portion can be used to satisfy the āfreeā electives required for the undergraduate portion.
Total graduate level course requirements would be the same as for the MS in ISTM degree. These requirements include 30 credit hours of coursework at the 600 or 800 level
Students in the 4+1 program would be permitted to take up to 6 credit hours of independent study. Additional independent study would not count toward graduation.
