Combined BS and MS Degrees in Chemistry
The
combined degrees program is conducted jointly by the undergraduate
college and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Exceptional students may combine undergraduate
and graduate courses and are simultaneously enrolled in bachelor's and
master's degrees programs. Both degrees are awarded only on completion
of the entire program; a student may not receive one degree earlier, even
if the requirements for that degree have been met.
Students seeking admission
to the program in Chemistry should consult their undergraduate major advisers
and also the Chemistry Graduate Program Director before applying
to the graduate school. Combined degree students are expected to fulfill
all the requirements of the undergraduate and graduate programs.
No courses offered in fulfillment of one set of requirements may be used
for the other.
Admission to the program
is normally during the junior year. Only in exceptional cases will
an application be accepted after the junior year. Therefore, students interested
in the program should contact their advisers early in their academic career
to facilitate program planning. A student may elect to withdraw from the
program at any time by filing the appropriate petition.
The
Tufts Plus Program offers tuition scholarships (maximum
50%) to Tufts undergraduates who are admitted to a participating
master's program.
