PlusOne with MS in Chemical Engineering
PlusOne with MS in Chemical Engineering
Overview
PlusOne accelerated master’s degrees allow students to accelerate the attainment of the master’s degree by applying graduate credits taken as an undergraduate toward both the undergraduate and graduate degrees. Current undergraduate students apply to enroll in the PlusOne program.
With the PlusOne program, students attain their bachelor’s degree followed by a PlusOne year to complete the master’s degree.
Benefits
- Accelerate learning – get your master’s in one year vs. typically two
- Reduce costs – apply some courses toward both your undergrad and master’s degrees, and get the MS for PlusOne tuition scholarship
- Gain a competitive edge – stand out with an advanced degree
Below are the eligible undergraduate majors available to pursue a PlusOne pathway with a master’s degree in Chemical Engineering. Also, review the Curriculum Guides and the Accelerated Master’s links for further details, including program policies and procedures, as well as how to Apply.

Graduate Course Sharing
Starting September 3, 2025, undergraduate students will be able to complete up to four graduate-level courses (16 SH) that will count toward both their undergraduate and graduate degree programs, regardless of which undergraduate requirement the course fulfills on the degree audit. Effective September 3, 2025, each department will no longer have specific double-counting policies.
For other questions on graduate course sharing, please contact the Graduate School of Engineering Advising.
Select up to four approved courses in your MS Chemical Engineering concentration, as listed in the catalog:
