Accelerated Master's Degree in Environmental Engineering

This accelerated program lets undergraduate students begin taking graduate-level courses during their final years of undergrad, saving time and money while deepening expertise and advancing careers sooner.

Accelerated Master's Degree in Environmental Engineering

Undergraduate students interested in graduate study in Environmental Engineering can get a head start in earning a graduate degree through the Accelerated Master's Degree in Environmental Engineering.

Undergraduate students that would like to qualify for the Accelerated Master's Degree Program must meet the following requirements:

Civil Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or Geological Engineering major
3.0 minimum GPA
90 completed credit hours as an undergraduate

Number of credit hours a student can earn towards the graduate degree while completing their undergraduate studies:

12 credit hours for students with a 3.5 GPA or higher
6 hours for students with a GPA between 3.0 and 3.49

Courses undergraduate students in the Accelerated Master's Degree Program can take to earn credit towards the graduate degree:

CE 572 Stormwater Engineering and Management
ENGR 573 Environmental Remediation
GEOL 505 Hydrogeology
CE 531 Soil Mechanics II
CE 541 Advanced Mechanics of Materials
CE 570 Infrastructure Management
Engr 591 Engineering Analysis I
Engr 593 Engineering analysis II

Remember: Students who fail to reserve 500-level courses for graduate credit at the time they take the course will not receive graduate credit for the course (graduate level work must be completed to earn graduate credit).

Reserving graduate credit with 500-level courses is required to ensure the Graduate School and instructor know the student must complete graduate credit requirements for the course.
Students cannot later claim graduate credit for 500-level courses if they did not take the appropriate steps to notify the Graduate School prior to taking the course.
