Concurrent BS/MS Degree Program

 

This is a five-year degree program which leads to both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science degree at the end of the five years. Both the BS degree requirements and the MS degree requirements need to be fulfilled. However, six credit hours of Computer Science courses at the 5000 level or above may be counted towards both sets of degree requirements, if they are chosen from the following list:

In theory, therefore, the minimum number of credit hours required for the BS/MS degree will be 152.

Students need to gain admission to this program during the Fall of their junior year.

Tuition

For resident students, the undergraduate tuition rate will be used throughout the BS/MS program, until and including the semester when the student completes the requirements for the BS/MS.

For non-resident students, for the graduate portion of the BS/MS program, the tuition rate will be: the minimum of the nonresident graduate tuition rate minus (the resident graduate tuition rate minus the resident undergraduate tuition rate) and the nonresident undergraduate tuition rate, with all of the above rates being the ones for the number of credits for which that student is enrolled. The "graduate portion of the BS/MS program" will be defined as those semesters after the student has 128 credit hours that are applicable to the BS/MS degree, until and including the semester when the student completes the requirements for the BS/MS.

Admission

Admission requires an application, available in ECOT 720. Applicants must have completed two 3000-level CS courses on the Boulder campus, must provide two letters of recommendation from CU Boulder Computer Science faculty members, and have a minimum GPA of 3.50.

For further information about admission to the program, including application deadlines, contact Graduate Program Advisor Vicki Kunz.

Advising

For academic advising related to the concurrent BS/MS degree, contact Professor Harold Gabow.
