UD School of Engineering Student Opportunities
Go Beyond the Classroom
Bachelor's Plus Master's Program (BPM)
The BPM program makes it easy to earn an M.S. degree by linking your University of Dayton undergraduate and graduate programs. Interested undergraduate students must have a 3.0 grade point average and apply for the BPM program during their undergraduate program, as well as apply directly to the graduate program of their choice. If accepted, students can take two courses at the graduate level during their undergraduate years and reduce the number of required classes for an M.S. degree from 10 to 8. In addition, the cost of tuition for BPM students is about 2/3 the normal cost of tuition during their first 12 months of their M.S. program.
