Combined Bachelor's To Master's - Cosmetic Science And Formulation Design, BSPS To MS In Cosmetic Science And Formulation Design

Undergraduate students accepted to the University of Toledo’s Cosmetic Science and Formulation Design Pipeline Program option will be admitted to the MS in Cosmetic Science and Formulation Design and allowed to complete up to three graduate level classes (nine credit hours) during their final academic year of undergraduate studies. Students admitted into the pipeline program must apply for admission to the College of Graduate Studies for the semester that they intend to matriculate. They will then continue into the graduate program upon completion of the undergraduate degree requirements. The graduate coursework (up to nine hours) may be applied to completion of both undergraduate and graduate degree requirements. It will be the joint responsibility of the faculty and administrators in the undergraduate and graduate programs to supervise students admitted to the combined program option, to ensure that the limit of nine hours taken as an undergraduate is strictly enforced, and to request that the College of Graduate Studies change their matriculation from Undergraduate to Graduate when they meet all undergraduate degree requirements. 

The following provisions apply for classes taken for graduate credit: The courses are listed above for the PH-PCOS-BSPS Pre-Professional and Professional Years. For the 4+1 Pathway Program 1) graduate classes taken at The University of Toledo only after the student is accepted in the program, 2) take the following 3 courses 1) PHPR 5800 Cosmetic Ingredients and Product Forms, 2) PHPR 5820 Cosmetic Trends and Claims, and 3) PHPR 5830 Cosmetic Regulations, Ethics, and Practices instead of three PCOS elective courses equaling 9 credits hours. Students interested in the combined program must submit a graduate admission application to the College of Graduate Studies.
