Public Health and Applied Gerontology, Bachelor’s Master’s Combined Program
Objective: This combined bachelor’s/master’s degree program is designed to provide qualified students the opportunity to complete both degree programs in as little as five years. The successful student will earn a bachelor’s degree in Public Health and an M.S. in Applied Gerontology (MGRN).
Undergraduate students in Public Health must apply for admission to the 4+1 B.S. in Public Health / M.S. in Applied Gerontology Combined Program. Students should apply to the 4+1 combined program in the semester in which they are completing their 75th credit hour so that they can begin graduate coursework the semester thereafter; undergraduate students can begin the 4+1 combined program in the fall or spring semester. Twelve hours of courses taken at the 500-level will be dual counted towards both degrees. Students then have the option to apply to the graduate school and continue progress towards the MGRN degree upon completion of the bachelor’s degree.
