College of Engineering Fast Track Programs

Fast Track programs enable students in some disciplines to begin work on the Master's Degree early.

The Fast Track Program enables outstanding UTA senior undergraduate students in several disciplines within the College of Engineering and the College of Science to satisfy degree requirements leading to a master’s degree in that discipline while completing their undergraduate studies. When senior-level students are within 15 hours of completing their undergraduate degree requirements, they may take up to nine hours of graduate level coursework designated by the program to satisfy both undergraduate and graduate degree requirements.

Interested undergraduate students should discuss this option with their advisors.

Information is provided in the department section of the undergraduate catalog, with details available in departmental offices.

At this time, there are Fast Track programs in the following undergraduate programs:

  • Aerospace Engineering leading to an M.S. Degree in Aerospace Engineering
  • Biochemistry leading to an M.S. Degree in Biomedical Engineering
