BS/MS Integrated Program

Students who desire to obtain a master's degree in engineering, and who have been accepted to a department professional program, may elect to enter the integrated master's program during the junior year by filling out the necessary forms obtained from the ME department graduate advisor. The purpose of the program is to afford greater flexibility in scheduling course work than is normally available through a traditional BS degree followed by an MS degree program.

In this program the BS degree must be received simultaneously with the MS degree. Specific requirements for admission and the MS degree are the same as those listed for the mechanical engineering MS-(Thesis or Project), plus the following:

Admissions and Entry

Application deadlines: Admission to graduate school must occur before taking the final 30 hours of combined BS/MS course work. A student may not be admitted as a graduate student fewer than two semesters prior to graduation. Application to graduate school must meet the usual university and department graduate application deadlines. It is recommended that the GRE be taken a minimum of six weeks prior to the application deadline.

Degree Requirements

Program of Study for both BS and MS programs must be filed at the beginning of junior year. 3.0 GPA is required.
