Description
The Department of Environmental & Civil Engineering offers an accelerated program that enables students to earn a Bachelor of Civil Engineering degree as well as earn graduate degree credits toward a Master of Science in Environmental Engineering.
Undergraduate students who are accepted into the Accelerated Master's Program (AKA 4+1) prior to Fall 2024 may earn a maximum of 12 master's credit hours, that will count toward both the undergraduate and graduate degrees.
After Fall 2024, you may earn a maximum of 9 master's credit hours, that will count toward both the undergraduate and graduate degrees.
