Accelerated B.S. to M.S. (Fast-Track Program)

New in 2016, students can join the new and improved Fast-Track Program. In the Fast-Track Program, students can earn a Bachelor of Science Degree and a Master of Science Degree in just four years (138 credits). This is accomplished by careful course planning and by permitting Fast-Track students to take graduate courses in their junior and senior years.  Students are allowed to take up to four graduate courses while completing the undergraduate program. By doing so, they are able to expedite the completion of their graduate degree in criminal justice.

This is an extraordinary opportunity for students who are serious about a career in criminal justice, those who are seeking advanced knowledge in the field, and for those who plan to pursue a Ph.D. in Criminology or Criminal Justice. Students must have (and maintain) a minimum GPA of 3.0 in order to be accepted into the Accelerated B.S. to M.S. Program. Dr. Mary Brewster is the advisor for the B.S. to M.S. Accelerated Program. Interested students should consult with either advisor before their junior year in order to effectively plan course schedules.
