Accelerated Master's Programs

Earn your bachelor's degree and master's degree in five years or less

Accelerated Master’s Programs (AMP) gives motivated, ambitious students a competitive advantage in the global marketplace—and saves time. IU Bloomington students enrolled in a growing list of AMP degrees can complete both a bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in just five years. 

Choose a combination that enhances your expertise in a specific field or one that aligns with your personal goals. Whichever combination you choose, the AMP will save you time and money, positioning you for maximum post-graduate success.

How does it work?

Interested students should contact their undergraduate advisor as early as possible. It is best to begin planning for a AMP by the end of your sophomore year.

Timeline

1. Apply to the AMP degree as an undergraduate, usually during your second or third year.
2. Take master’s courses early while finishing your bachelor’s degree.
3. Finish your remaining master’s courses as a graduate student. Many programs allow early master’s courses to count toward requirements for both degrees at the same time.

You're only one step away! Below is a list of AMP programs available to students majoring in the College of Arts and Sciences. Contact the offering department to apply or to learn more about eligibility and degree requirements.
