Overview

Through this program, potential BS/MS students may be identified when first admitted as entering freshmen psychology majors. Students may also enter as transfers or up until the spring of their junior year.

During the Psychology (BS/MS) program at Drexel University of their undergraduate study, students will need to seek out and establish a faculty member to serve as their mentor and program advisor, and with whom they wish to continue working during their graduate training and completion of their graduate thesis.

Outcome

The Accelerated Master of Science in Psychology program allows accelerated entry into graduate level courses during the student's fourth undergraduate year with planned entry into graduate school upon completion of their BS degree at the end of year 4. Because students have received a “head start” by completing a structured curriculum in their senior year, their graduate coursework for the MS degree can be completed in one year post-BS. The BS/MS curriculum is designed to include a 4-year undergraduate or 4-year undergraduate co-op program. Students in the program cannot be enrolled in a 5-year co-op.
