Combined Degree Programs (Purdue Undergraduate/Graduate)


A combined-degree program is reserved for exceptional students and results in the joining of curricula of an existing baccalaureate or professional degree program and an existing master’s degree program within the Purdue University system. Combined degree programs formally approved by the participating academic units and the Graduate School may use a limited number of dual counted credit hours of 50000- and 60000-level coursework taken to satisfy the baccalaureate or professional degree on the master’s degree plan of study. Undergraduate excess credits can be used in combination with shared credits in the combined degree but the sum of the dual-counted and undergraduate excess credits may not exceed maximum shown below.
