B.S. in Emergency Services to M.S. in Emergency Services

The BSES to MSES program is for exceptional students who are committed to continuing their education through the Master of Science in Emergency Service (MSES) degree at the Worldwide campus. The MSES degree program is designed for individuals seeking advanced knowledge in planning, emergency services, hazard mitigation and preparedness, disaster response, recovery, and homeland security. The program accelerates the completion of the MSES degree by allowing qualified BSES students to complete up to three MSES graduate courses and count them toward both degrees.

Approved Courses for the Combined Option

Students may begin to complete the requirements when they have achieved senior status (having earned at least 75 credit hours with a 3.00 CGPA). Students must earn a B grade or better in each of the three MSES courses. If a grade of C, D, or F is earned in any of the MSES graduate courses taken for BSES credit, the student will be removed from the program, have credit awarded to the BSES degree only, and may continue to complete the BSES degree. Additionally, students must complete a minimum of 120 course credits for their Bachelor of Science degree.

Upon completion of the BSES degree, students will be enrolled in the MSES program where they can continue completing the degree requirements with the previous MSES courses already credited.

Students interested in this accelerated program option should contact their Academic Advisor or Campus Advisor.
