<p>I know the usual is BA in 4, BE in 5th, and MS in 6-7th... but I was wondering is it possible to get all three in 5 years (or less).</p>
<p>Does anyone know if there are any courses that combine the Social analysis requirement with the Literature requirement?</p>
<p>It’ll be very hard to get your MS in less than 5 years. You can get the AB/BE in 4, but the MS is at least 2 extra years and requires finding a prof to sponsor your work (if you have above a certain GPA in the major/BE, you’ll be auto-admitted to Thayer).</p>
<p>You cannot get more than one distributive requirement from one course, so whether there are classes that give you both a SOC and LIT is largely irrelevant.</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice, right. Just one more thing, since I’d be fulfilling the requirements for an accredited degree, wouldn’t I only have to take 6 more courses to get the Master’s?</p>
<p>technically yes. additionally you have to complete a master’s thesis, which is not a light endeavor. It is theoretically possible to receive the BE and MS concurrently (see here [Master</a> of Science (M.S.)](<a href=“http://engineering.dartmouth.edu/graduate/ms/]Master”>Dartmouth Engineering | MS)) but it’s done very rarely, if ever.</p>
