The Geography, BS/Geography, MS is initiated while undergraduates are completing the bachelor’s degree. For this program, graduate student course work begins in the student’s third or fourth year of undergraduate study and can be completed with one academic year of study beyond the bachelor’s degree. Eligible students accepted into the program may count up to 12 semester hours of graduate coursework towards completion of both the bachelor’s and master’s degrees. Students are formally admitted to the master’s program after all requirements for the undergraduate degree are completed.
ECU undergraduate geography students with a 3.0 minimum cumulative GPA may apply to the accelerated program during the semester in which they expect to complete a minimum of 75 eligible undergraduate semester hours. Upon acceptance and the submission of the Request to Pursue an Accelerated Undergraduate/Graduate Program online form by the Graduate Program Director, the student can begin taking graduate courses the following semester.
