Business and Professional Studies Bachelor's / Master's Options

The College of Business and Professional Studies offers three Bachelor’s/Master’s options. Each program is designed to allow an undergraduate student to complete coursework toward a Bachelor’s degree and Master’s degree. Students combine up to 18 s.h. of graduate courses with undergraduate work, leading to a Master’s degree one year following completion of the Bachelor’s degree.

Prior to admission to a Bachelor’s/Master’s program (see Graduate Admission Requirements), students may only take two graduate courses (6 semester hours). However, exceptions may be made with CBPS approval for students completing certificates or special course sequences. Following admission to a Bachelor’s/Master’s program, students may take additional graduate courses, but will be assessed an additional nominal fee to do so, beyond the first six semester hours. No more than 18 graduate semester hours may be taken prior to Bachelor’s degree conferral for students in these programs.
