Overview

This Horticulture and Natural Resources (Accelerated) programme from Kansas State University provides exceptional undergraduates with the opportunity to obtain both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in 5 years, a shorter time than typically required to earn a B.S. plus M.S. if both degrees are pursued separately.

Students can obtain M.S. with thesis or non-thesis option.

The advantages of the combined degree to students seeking private sector employment may be entry level positions with higher-level responsibilities, higher pay, and opportunities for more rapid advancement.

The rigorous training and combined B.S./M.S. (thesis option) will offer a competitive advantage in the admissions process to students interested in pursuing doctoral (PhD) degrees.

Programme Structure

The student will work closely with her/his major professor to form a supervisory committee and file a programme of study by the end of the first semester of the senior year. The student’s supervisory committee must approve the programme of study, which is a statement of the student’s graduation requirements.

The undergraduate advisor will continue to advise the student in academic progress toward the B.S. degree, and the major professor will supervise the student’s academic progress and research project for the M.S. degree. Research toward the M.S. thesis will begin as soon as possible, but will not begin later than the first semester of the senior year.
