The BS/MA program enables high achieving undergraduate majors to begin fulfilling requirements for a master's degree while completing the bachelor's degree. The program is designed so that students may complete their MA degree in one year after graduating with their BS degree rather than the traditional two years of study. With a MA degree students have more challenging courses during their senior year of study and have broader career opportunities after completing the MA degree. Successful students have obtained desired careers, gain admission to law schools, or gain admission to PhD programs.
