The Computer Science, BS/Computer Science, MS accelerated program allows outstanding computer science students with a minimum 3.0 GPA to apply to graduate-level study in computer science after completing a minimum of 80 eligible undergraduate semester hours (s.h.) and to begin taking graduate courses after completion of a minimum of 90 eligible undergraduate semester hours. The bachelor of science (BS) degree requires 120 s.h. for completion, and students are formally admitted to the master of science (MS) program after satisfactory completion of all requirements for the undergraduate degree. It is anticipated that students will complete both degrees in five years.
Students accepted into the accelerated program must earn a grade of B or above in graduate coursework being double-counted to continue in the accelerated program. Students who earn a C in any double-counted graduate course will be able to count that course toward the bachelor’s degree, but will not be eligible to take additional graduate courses in the accelerated program. Students will be able to reapply to the graduate program.
Only on-campus (undergraduate and graduate) courses will be allowed to satisfy the requirements for the accelerated program.
Undergraduate students accepted into the Computer Science, BS/Computer Science, MS accelerated program may count up to 12 s.h. from the following graduate courses:
- CSCI 6020 - Machine Learning (for CSCI 4120)
- CSCI 6030 - Information Extraction and Retrieval (for CSCI 4130)
- CSCI 6040 - Computational Analysis of Natural Languages (for CSCI 4140)
- CSCI 6050 - Digital Image Analysis and Understanding (for CSCI 4150)
- CSCI 6600 - Database Management Systems (for SENG 3700)
