Upper-division undergraduates may work simultaneously on their bachelor of science degree and a master of City and Regional Planning (M.CRP) in planning. By enrolling in all required planning classes as electives for the baccalaureate degree, students may obtain both an undergraduate degree as well as complete coursework toward a graduate degree. Students should request and receive permission from the director of the City and Regional Planning Program to begin their program of study in planning no later than fall of their junior year. Students with cumulative GPAs above 3.0 will be considered. In some cases, students can complete the two-year master's program in one year beyond the usual bachelor's degree. The key is to carefully schedule the last year of the undergraduate program. This program may be particularly appropriate for architecture, management, economics, civil and environmental engineering, and earth and atmospheric sciences majors.
