Accelerated Masters

In their senior year, select top students in the Mechanical, Aerospace and Manufacturing Engineering may opt for the Accelerated Masters Program, in which students conduct individual research under faculty advisement as their Senior Design Projects.  This research continues after graduation with a bachelor’s into the master’s study and forms the basis for the master’s thesis. In this way, a student may earn the master’s degree one calendar year from graduation with a bachelor’s degree.
