An Accelerated Bachelor’s / Master’s (ABM) plan of study in Systems Technology is to provide a curriculum path to eligible undergraduate students to graduate with both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in five years. The ABM program will allow eligible undergraduate students to take up to nine (9) credit hours of graduate level courses that will be counted towards both their undergraduate and graduate degree requirements, which is expected to shorten the time needed to obtain the master’s degree.

Admission, Application, and Grade, Credit, & Time Requirements  are outlined in the University’s policy.

Admission and Application Requirements


Students must meet the Admission, Application, & Grade, Credit, and Time Requirements outlined in the University’s ABM Policy.

In addition to the University’s ABM Admission Requirements students must:

  • have Engineering and Technology Management, BSETM declared as their primary major

Advising


During their senior year, students admitted to the ABM plan of study will be advised jointly by an Undergraduate Advisor and the Graduate Coordinator. The undergraduate degree graduation timeline for each student will be determined collaboratively with the student, Undergraduate Advisor, Graduate Coordinator, and Department Head. Following undergraduate degree completion, students will be advised by the Graduate Coordinator only.
