Take a quicker path to the finish line

You know where you want to go in your career. Get there sooner.

Earn credit that you can apply to your master’s degree and bachelor’s degree (major) at the same time.

How it works

Save time, money and graduate earlier with two degrees.

• Begin graduate studies during your junior or senior year.
• Take six (6) hours of 600+ level courses that will count toward both your bachelor’s and master’s.
• Complete both degrees in five years, which saves you an extra semester or two.

This option is available only for Missouri State undergraduate students who major in history education.

To get on the accelerated track, you should:

• Make the decision prior to or during your junior year.
• Work with your advisor and the history education graduate program coordinator to develop a plan.
