Degree Information

Degree Plan

Courses previously used for another degree are not acceptable for degree plan credit. A graduate student must file a degree plan which includes those courses to be applied toward a particular degree. Changes in the approved degree plan may be made by petition to the Office of Graduate Studies. The student must submit the degree plan using the accepted degree plan format as it appears on the website at ogs.tamu.edu/OGS/currentForms.htm.

Lower division undergraduate course work (100- and 200-level) may not be used for credit toward a graduate degree. Course work may not be used to satisfy requirements for more than one degree. Additional course work may be added to the approved degree plan by the student's advisory committee if such additional course work is needed to correct deficiencies in the student's academic preparation. Specific details and requirements for each degree program may be obtained from the student's academic department.

Courses listed on the degree plan are subject to degree time limits. Please refer to the Time Limits section in each degree section in which the student is presently enrolled.
