Accelerated BS-MS Program

Earn both your Bachelors of Science and Masters of Science (BS-MS) degrees in less time than our traditional programs by taking graduate level courses that will count towards both degrees through our new Accelerated BS-MS Program.

Qualified students obtain a BS degree in Agricultural and Resource Economics with a major in Food and Agricultural Business or Natural Resource and Environmental Economics in seven semesters by completing 120 credit hours, including 9 hours of graduate courses that count towards both the BS degree and the MS degree. Students then go on to obtain a thesis-based MS degree in Agricultural and Resource Economics (Agricultural Economics Concentration or Natural Resource Economics Concentration) in three semesters and one summer, completing an additional 22 credit hours of graduate work.
