PROGRAM<br />

academically advanced students the opportunity to pursue<br />

baccalaureate and master’s degrees at the same time. The program is<br />

available to students studying criminal justice, forensic psychology<br />

and public administration. The number of undergraduate electives<br />

and courses in the major are reduced for BA/MA candidates, thus<br />

enabling students to begin graduate courses once they have fulfilled<br />

the college general education requirements and some of the<br />

requirements of their major. <strong>Graduate</strong> courses then fulfill certain<br />

undergraduate requirements.<br />
