Programs Offered By Degree Level

Pathway to Accelerated Master of Engineering

NNU, in collaboration with Boise State University (BSU), is working with its students to apply for an accelerated master's degree program at BSU. This accelerated program gives bachelor’s degree students a “fast-track” option to pursue their Master of Engineering degree in one of the following: mechanical engineering, materials science & engineering, or electrical and computer engineering. Upon a student’s successful completion of this 4+1 model, the student will have earned a Bachelor of Science degree from NNU and a Master of Engineering  degree from BSU.

Students who have been early admitted to BSU's accelerated Master of Engineering degree program before their senior year will be able to take two graduate courses during their senior year at NNU. These will apply to the BSU Master of Engineering degree as well as their NNU Bachelor of Science degree.
