MSITM 4+1 Program

The MSITM 4+1 Program is a combined bachelor/master degree program that provides high-achieving students an opportunity to complete a bachelor’s and master’s degree in less time than would be required if the two degrees were done independently.  It is designed for students who are high academic achievers and creates an integrated learning experience along several knowledge paths.  The MSITM 4+1 Program students will be able to earn their master’s degree by completing 18 credits (6 courses instead of 10) beyond the undergraduate MIS major requirements.

Students accepted for the MSITM 4+1 Program must have a minimum overall undergraduate GPA of 3.2, and a 500 on the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT).  Students may apply to the MSITM 4+1 Program and be offered deferred admission to the graduate program during their junior year.

Students offered deferred admission will remain classified as undergraduates until they have completed all undergraduate degree requirements.  At that time, students who have maintained an overall undergraduate GPA 3.2 and have earned a 3.0 or above GPA in the double-counted graduate courses, will be reclassified as a graduate student through Graduate Study.
