Neumont University Launches Accelerated 3+1 Pathway: Earn Two Degrees in 4 Years

 

Neumont University Launches Accelerated 3+1 Pathway

Earn two degrees in four years.

Neumont University's new 3+1 Accelerated Pathway gives future tech professionals the opportunity to earn both a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and a Master of Science in Applied Artificial Intelligence in the same four years many students spend earning a bachelor's degree.

Why? Because the technology industry is evolving faster than traditional higher education.

Artificial intelligence is transforming how software is built, how businesses operate, and what employers expect from the next generation of engineers. As demand for AI expertise continues to grow, Neumont saw an opportunity to rethink the traditional college timeline and designed a faster, more efficient path for students to break into one of technology's fastest-growing fields.

Instead of spending four years earning a bachelor's degree and another one or two years completing a master's, eligible students can earn both degrees in just four years, graduating with more credentials, more technical expertise, and a stronger competitive advantage as they enter the workforce.

Elevate Your Employability with Applied AI

The 3+1 Pathway was created for early adopters who know they want to build the next generation of technology and use AI to solve real problems.

By combining a strong computer science foundation with advanced artificial intelligence coursework, you’ll develop the technical skills needed to design intelligent technology, automate business processes, and solve complex engineering challenges with AI tools.

Whether your goal is to become an AI engineer, computer scientist, machine learning expert, or build the next generation of intelligent apps, the 3+1 Pathway is the most efficient route to advanced technical expertise, a portfolio of real-world projects, and expanded career opportunities.

Build Career Experience While Finishing Your Master’s

Here's where the 3+1 program really stands out: because the Master of Science in Applied Artificial Intelligence is completed online during the evenings, students can begin working full-time after finishing their bachelor's degree.

That means Year Four looks a little different at Neumont.

Instead of spending another year waiting to start your career, you will be building AI-enabled tools, gaining professional experience, finishing your master's degree, and getting paid, all at the same time.

By graduation, you'll have two technology degrees, valuable professional connections, and a year of industry experience. Rather than choosing between launching your career or continuing your education, the Neumont 3+1 Pathway makes it possible to do both.

Why Neumont University?

For more than 20 years, Neumont has challenged the traditional approach to technology education by focusing on project-based learning  and building hiring pipelines with local employers.

The 3+1 Pathway is a natural extension of our commitment to student success. We created the program to help students graduate faster with stronger credentials, deeper AI expertise, real-world experience, and a meaningful advantage in an increasingly competitive technology job market.

If you're ready to earn two technology degrees in four years, graduate with advanced AI expertise, and start your career sooner, we'd love to show you how that’s possible at Neumont University.
