Master of Science in Engineering (Chemical - Accelerated)

Western Michigan University

The Accelerated Master’s Graduate Degree Program (AGDP) in Chemical Engineering allows undergraduate students to begin accumulating credits towards completion of a master’s while still enrolled as undergraduates. Undergraduate students admitted to an AGDP, with senior standing, could take 5000- and 6000-level courses for graduate credit. Up to 12 hours of designated 5000- and/or 6000-level courses (but not less than 6 hours) could be used for both the bachelor’s degree and for completing the master’s degree within 24 months of completing their bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering. These students may choose to pursue a Master of Science in Engineering (Chemical) degree under either the thesis option or the non-thesis option, which will allow them to complete an AGDP degree by completing combined graduate and undergraduate credit hours.
