Accelerated Master’s Degree in Secondary Education—Math Emphasis
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.
Accelerate Master’s Degree in Secondary Education—Math Emphasis
Undergraduate students at UM that are interested in graduate study in Secondary Education with an emphasis in Math can get a head start through the Accelerated Master’s Degree Program.
Undergraduate students that would like to qualify for the Accelerated Master's Degree Program must meet the following requirements:
- 3.0 minimum GPA and 3.0 on the most recent 45 hours of undergraduate work
- 90 completed credit hours as an undergraduate
Number of credit hours a student can earn towards the graduate degree while completing their undergraduate studies:
- 15 credit hours
Courses* undergraduate students in the Accelerated Master's Degree Program can take to earn credit towards the graduate degree:
- Math Emphasis
- Math 501 – General Topology I
- Math 513 – Theory of Numbers I
- Math 520 – Linear Algebra
- Math 533 – Topics in Euclidean Geometry
- Math 540 – History of Mathematics
- Math 555 – Advanced Calculus I
- Math 556 – Advanced Calculus II
- Math 564 – Introduction to Dynamical Systems I
- Math 573 – Applied Probability
- Math 575 – Mathematical Statistics I
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.
