CU Boulder is offering a newly structured program for undergraduates interested in getting a bachelor’s and master’s degree in an accelerated amount of time.
Formerly known as concurrent bachelor’s/master’s degrees, this newly structured program is now called bachelor’s-accelerated master’s. The program allows admitted students to begin taking a limited amount of graduate-level coursework as undergraduates—typically during their senior year—and be awarded a bachelor’s degree once they’ve met their undergraduate degree requirements. Then, they will transition into graduate student status to continue working toward their master’s degree.
Applications for these bachelor’s-accelerated master’s programs will be available online on July 1. For students already admitted to a concurrent bachelor’s/master degree program, prior to July 1, no action is needed. Students will continue to follow the concurrent bachelor’s/master’s structure and receive both degrees simultaneously when all degree requirements have been completed.
