Bradley University's 4plus1 chemistry program lets you complete both bachelor's and master's degrees in just five years through this accelerated pathway.
Pursuing a B.S./M.S. in chemistry opens doors for career growth, increases earning potential in the chemical field, and strengthens applications for advanced degree programs. This integrated approach enables students to start graduate coursework during their fourth year, significantly reducing the total time needed compared to pursuing degrees separately.
Students gain comprehensive training across chemistry's core disciplines - inorganic, organic, analytical, physical, and biochemistry. The program includes three years of continuous research under faculty guidance, culminating in a thesis project with both written and oral defense components.
