Students are allowed to matriculate on a part-time basis (taking one or two courses) and most professionally employed students that pursue the M.S. degree in Applied Biomedical Sciences do so. Most classes meet once per week and are scheduled in the evening or online for student convenience.
Bachelor's-Master's Program
Undergraduate students in this program move through the master's program at an accelerated rate by taking two 5000-level courses during their senior year and count those credits toward both their undergraduate and graduate degrees. Students apply during their Junior year.
