Chemical Engineering, Accelerated 4+1 BCHE/MCHE

 The Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering also offers an Accelerated Program that would enable students to earn Bachelor and Masters Degrees in Chemical Engineering in 5 years. Students are eligible to apply for the program after they have completed sixty-five (65) credit hours, typically at the end of the sophomore year (with at least 30 credit hours at CSU), and they have shown appropriate progress in their degree program. Once admitted to the combined program, the student may complete up to twelve (12) credit hours of graduate courses while enrolled in the undergraduate program. Ten (10) of these credit-hours will count towards both the undergraduate and graduate degree requirements. For more details, please refer to the appropriate pages in the undergraduate catalog.

Students who are accepted for an accelerated 4+1 program may apply or transfer a maximum of 12 graduate credit hours taken while an undergraduate. No additional graduate credit hours taken as an undergraduate may be applied or transferred to the graduate record.
