Integrated Master and Bachelor Degree is also known as IMB program. Through this track, qualified students will be automatically considered for our IMB program. In other words, students who choose this track do not need to re-apply for the MS in AiCE program at CMKL University. Applicants don’t need to submit any recommendation letters or GRE scores.
Eligible students begin to complete their B.Eng. in AiCE in the normal or accelerated track and continue to pursue M.S. in AiCE at CMKL University. However, the students need to complete the undergraduate degree requirements before classifying as graduate students.
Students whose QPA is above 3.00 are automatically eligible for the CMKL IMB program. If they are interested in participating in the IMB program, they need to complete and sign the declaration form.
Students starting B.Eng. AiCE in the normal track will be eligible for dual degree B.Eng. AiCE and M.S. in AiCE at CMKL University. Eligible students need to complete their declaration form during the third year of their undergraduate studies. The degrees will be awarded by CMKL University.
Once a student has completed all of the requirements for the B.Eng. in AiCE degree, they may become a graduate (Masters) student. To do this, the student's undergraduate degree is certified, and that student officially graduates with the B.Eng. degree. Once a student's undergraduate degree has been certified, no more courses may then be applied toward the B. Eng. degree.
If a student takes more than 8 semesters to complete the IMB program, then they must be a graduate student for at least one semester before graduating.
To determine the most appropriate time for an undergraduate student to become a graduate student, they should consult with the Hub Office to understand how becoming a graduate student will affect financial aid, and with their academic advisor to determine a course schedule. The tuition rates depend on the program you currently attend.
