STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擜cademically motivated students are encouraged to aspire higher as registration for spring classes gets underway at 桃花直播 State University.

With 桃花直播鈥檚 Thrive in Five initiative, scholars can earn both a bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚 degree concurrently in only five years. And by completing the required course load in less than the typical six years, they can enter the workforce and start earning sooner.

鈥淭hrive in Five is designed to put motivated students on a fast track to success,鈥 said Peter Ryan, executive vice provost and Graduate School dean. 鈥淓quipped with two degrees, participants are seen by potential employers as candidates who possess the critical thinking skills valued today in the聽global marketplace more than ever.鈥

Undergraduate students who have completed at least 60 hours of coursework and have at least a 3.25 GPA may begin the process of earning their bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚 degrees at an accelerated pace by meeting with their program advisor to map out the appropriate coursework. Requirements may vary depending on the program students choose.

鈥淭his option is perfect for students with strong academic records seeking to earn academic credentials that place them at the head of the pack in a competitive job market,鈥 said Ryan.
