Accelerated Master’s Program

The Accelerated Master of Science Programs enable exceptional senior undergraduate students to start earning credits towards their Master’s while pursuing their undergraduate education.

Through the Accelerated MSc program option, highly motivated students with the help of their academic advisors can plan to finish their undergraduate and Master’s degrees within a minimum period of five years.

The accelerated program is intended to allow undergraduate students to register for a maximum of two Master level courses, where these courses can count to satisfy the technical elective requirement for the undergraduate level. It is required that an undergraduate CGPA of at least 3.5 is maintained and grades of B or better are received in the completed dual-counted graduate courses. To be able to apply to the Accelerated Master of Science Programs, students must be on senior standing and having a minimum CGPA 3.5. Students wishing to apply for the Accelerated Master of Science Programs must complete the application form, which is available from the Registrar’s Office. To be granted permission for the Accelerated Master of Science Programs, the application should be approved by the Scholarship Office, the Academic Advisor, the Department Head, the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies and finally the Associate Dean for Graduate Studies at the relevant College.
