Concurrent students planning to join the MSMS-T (thesis) track may take NSCI 6110 (2 credits) in Fall and NSCI 6112 (1 credit) in Spring AND NSCI 6900 for 1 semester at 1 credit.

Concurrent students planning to join the MSMS-A (non-thesis) applied track may take NSCI 6110 in Fall. NSCI 6112 and NSCI 6900 are not required for MSMS-A track.

Concurrent students interested in the MSMS-T option are required to find a MSMS faculty member who agrees to serve as their faculty advisor before applying for concurrent status. MSMS-A concurrent students will be advised by the MSMS Program Director.
