Combined Graduate & Undergraduate Programs

The College of Engineering offers a number of combined degree (BS/MS) programs for undergraduate students with outstanding academic records to encourage them to pursue advanced degrees. This allows well-qualified undergraduate students at Ohio State to start graduate study before completing their undergraduate degree. Enrolling in a combined BS/MS program can shorten the total time to get both bachelor's and master's degrees. By enrolling in a combined BS/MS program, students are eligible to count up to 9 semester credit-hours of courses taken as a graduate student toward their bachelor's degree - and these credit-hours also count toward the master's degree.

Programs

For information about the specific combined BS/MS programs in Engineering, including possible additional restrictions on undergraduate GPA, courses that can be double-counted, timetables and procedures for application, admission, enrollment, etc., see the department-specific information and program contacts for these graduate areas:
