Study Level

Masters

The Chemical and Biological Engineering Department offers the opportunity to begin work on a Master of Science (with thesis) while completing the requirements of the Bachelor’s degree. These combined BS/MS degrees are designed to allow undergraduates engaged in research to apply their experience to an advanced degree. An advantage of the combined BS/MS program is that students may apply 2 classes (6 credit hours) to both their BS and MS degrees. These two classes must be chemical engineering elective courses at the 400-level or higher. The remaining MS curriculum consists of the four core graduate courses (ChEN507, ChEN509, ChEN516, and ChEN518) and 18 thesis credits. It is expected that a student would be able to complete both degrees in 5–51/2 years. To take advantage of the combined, program students should be engaged in research and taking graduate coursework during their senior year.
