These will be identical sessions and will have time for questions following the presentation. Please stop by to learn about this great opportunity! The Combined Program allows a student to dual count up to two graduate (500 and 600 level) courses towards the BS and MSCE coursework requirements. A grade of B or better is required in the dual counted courses. Application requirements are: * Must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.3 * Apply in semester 5. Application consists of: * Application form * Current official Purdue transcript * Two letters of recommendation * Links to these materials can be found at: https://engineering.purdue.edu/CCE/Academics/Graduate/Combined-BSCE-MSCE. Please note that although the optimal time to apply is in semester 5, we can accept applications if you are further into your program. As long as there would be one semester while you are combined status before your BS is awarded, you can still apply for the program. Applications are due November 29, 2024.
