SUMMARY:Accelerated Professional Graduate Programs Information Sessions
DESCRIPTION:Current UMBC undergraduates: as you begin to think ahead to graduation\, you may be considering whether graduate school is in your near future. To help you get a jump-start on their master’s degree\, UMBC offers an accelerated program so that our current undergraduate students can double-count credits in their last two years of undergrad towards both their bachelor’s and master’s degree. This is an opportunity for you to save both time and tuition money while working to earn both degrees together. You can also earn a graduate certificate through the accelerated program. \n\n\n\nCurrent UMBC juniors and seniors are invited to attend our virtual Accelerated Professional Graduate Programs Information Session to learn how to apply for admission to the accelerated program for one of the professional master’s degree options offered at UMBC in Catonsville\, MD or at UMBC-Shady Grove in Rockville\, MD. Be sure that you’re interested in learning more about one of the master’s or graduate certificate programs listed here before registering. \n\n\n\nRegister
