Earn a bachelor's and master's degree in as little as five years. Accelerated Master's Programs (AMPs) at IU help save time and tuition costs while getting job-ready at the school you know and trust.
Some AMPs are designed for specific majors, while others are open to all IU Bloomington undergraduates across campus interested in graduate education. Have a question about Luddy’s AMP program? Send an email any time to goluddy@iu.edu to learn more.
The first step to getting started is scheduling an appointment with your undergraduate advisor for approval. Your academic advisor will guide you step-by-step on eligibility, deadlines, and how to apply for your program of choice.
During your senior year at IU, you will enroll in at least one graduate-level course that counts towards your AMP. You will remain classified as an undergraduate until you finish all your bachelor’s requirements. After that, you will complete the remaining credits as a graduate student to finish your master’s degree in one additional year of study.
Explore every layer of computing, from algorithms and programming languages to operating systems, networks, and computer architecture, in just one additional year of study.
